This error means that your app manager is running. You should close it before running apt-get

sometimes hildon-application-manager stays in the memory. You can try to kill it or restart.

I'm having the exact same problem as BooYaBob when inputing "apt-get install libungif4g" into X-Term. App manager was not running, did not show up in processes and this was right after boot.

(sorry for being such a newb).

Code:
killall hildon-application-manager
Don't know if that can break your dpkg db though. Never did for me.

I ran that command and it said 'no process killed'. Tryed the apt-get command after that and get the same error

I don't think he's installing as root...

Booya,
did you 'sudo gainroot' before running apt-get?

The error after apt-get is:
Code:
E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13 Permission denied)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root?
As for being root, my device is whatever it is out-of-the-box (this is the first time I've touched X-Term).
