[libreoffice-users] LibreOffice/OpenOffice co-installation broke apt package manager?

Hi, :-)

I'm using Ubuntu 10.10 and my package manager prompted me that there
were updates ready this morning. It was a 139 Mb download and included
both LibreOffice 3.3 and OpenOffice 3.2.

The process failed, with this message:

"The package system is broken
Check if you are using third party repositories. If so disable them,
since they are a common source of problems.
Furthermore run the following command in a Terminal: apt-get install -f"

I ran the above apt-get command, and got the output below:

david@david-laptop:~$ sudo apt-get install -f
[sudo] password for david:
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?
david@david-laptop:~$ sudo apt-get install -f
