Did sudo apt upgrade after a very long time and it is stuck at this point since last 2 hours. What do I need to do to get beyond this?? I literally have no idea abt what it says.

It didn't work and I am trying to install JDK on my machine but it still gets stuck at this point

Keep in mind that lock is held IF something is actively trying to install a package to your system@drifting tide
