Another process is in use...
Could be the Lite Update Notifier, Synaptic or Lite Software could be open or installing or of the a like...

Close any other open package/software managers, if just after a reboot give it a few minutes... Then try again..
If you cannot find what has the lock... a reboot will close out everything, the notifier typically runs at boot - just give it a few if this error is immediate..
