Hi
I am running HA in a NUC ubuntu docker following this instructions.

Lately I had problem to watch movies from Stremio so today I tried to fix it (ha ha)
So I tried the following commands (among several tries like uninstall stremio, its addons etc)

sudo apt install ubuntu-restricted-extras

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

I think the last one cause the below problem

There is a red notification in ubuntu desktop which prompts me to check - udpate (?) not sure

I am getting the following which makes me afraid that something is wrong with HA ?

E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend - open (13: Permission d                       enied)
E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend), are y                       ou root?
