At start my situation was similar to this: A new version of configuration file /etc/default/grub is available, but the version installed currently has been locally modified

I don't know why but I thought It would be like solving a git conflict so I choose "start a new shell to examine the situation".

I am not able to re-start apt-get upgrade.

root@mygroup-03074302:/# sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo: unable to resolve host mygroup-03074302
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another process using it?

This is a brand new VM I have not modified grub personally.

Assuming you're still in the shell you have started to examine the situation, just exit it and it'll return you to the (currently running) package installation process.

  • I am pretty sure I exited with CTRL-D and it closed the whole terminal. Trying to reproduce your claim it did work though as you describe. – Giszmo Mar 29 '21 at 00:25
