'"Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend" error upon installing python and pip
I tried to install python and pip, but I get the following error message in the terminal.
apt-get install python3-pip
E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend - open (13: Permission denied)
E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend), are you root?
How can I resolve this?
