What's going on here??

their is another stale lock file in /var/cache/apt/archives ,,,,,,so

sudo rm -rf /var/cache/apt/archives/lock

,,,,,if I am not mistaken this was your original one/problem .

the errors are telling you what to do ,,,,,,,just a bit cryptically .

this will happen when you have 2 package managers running or sometimes if a process was interrupted ,,,,leaving this stail lock file .

to remove it ,,,,,

sudo rm -rf /var/lib/dpkg/lock

Please forgive my ignorance in all this. I am an 81 year old man who has been using windows since it was first created.
Dropped Windows 7 years ago & became addicted to Ubuntu.
The reason I want to use Wine is solely to run Sketchup. So far I have not been able to install Wine properly.
As you have seen, am at a loss with wine software. So if you could be patient & help me get Sketchup running, I would be a happy man.
I really appreciate your efforts so far - look forward to you getting back from work!

ya ,,,,you use the "tab" key to switch between choices on those kind of windows ,,,and some times the arrow keys ,,,then the "enter" key to select the choice .

bumpy@bumpyputer:/usr/bin$ sudo apt-get rm ttf-mscorefonts-installer

E: Invalid operation uninstall

Huh? more random commands, there. Be careful, luckily the commands you gave with the options you used made no sense, so no actions were actually performed.

debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable

This I missed. Reboot if you haven't done so already, then this:

sudo dpkg --configure -a

What seems to have happened is that the tiny program or script that downloads and installs the MS fonts that are needed by Wine has locked up, and is preventing it from running again when we reinstall the ttf-mscorefonts-installer.

Rebooting should 'kill' the process that is stuck, and the command again should make the ttf-mscorefonts-installer package finish the installation process. ttf-mscorefonts-installerT

I'll be at work all day, in to the evening so i may not get a chance to respond if there are still errors until much later.

I am totally lost as well, but a few points:

What specifically are you attempting to accomplish?

you seem to be running commands to do things that you may need to understand more before simply just typing things in.

E: Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open (11: Resource temporarily unavailable) 
E: Unable to lock directory /var/cache/apt/archives/ 
bumpy@bumpyputer:/usr/bin$ sudo apt-get autoremove /var/cache/apt/archives/lock

The error message , with the 'E" is key here. It does describe the problem accurately, though not obviously to everyone immediately. You have the right idea in removing the lock file /var/cache/apt/archives/lock, but it is a file, and not a package, so you would not use apt-get to remove it, you would delete it as you would any file, except you need sudo or kdesudo access to do it.

sudo rm /var/cache/apt/archives/lock

make sure you don't have another package manager running, either muon or another terminal window running apt or something

This will probably clear up the log jam

You have run commands that luckily did not work , so we can ignore most of the output, but her is what we need to do to get back to where we were: upgrading the package ttf-mscorefonts-installer

Uninstall this, then reinstall it, and see where that gets us.

Usage: install [OPTION]... [-T] SOURCE DEST 
*or: *install [OPTION]... SOURCE... DIRECTORY 
*or: *install [OPTION]... -t DIRECTORY SOURCE... 
*or: *install [OPTION]... -d DIRECTORY... 

This install program copies files (often just compiled) into destination 
locations you choose. *If you want to download and install a ready-to-use 
package on a GNU/Linux system, you should instead be using a package manager 
like yum(1) or apt-get(1). 

In the first three forms, copy SOURCE to DEST or multiple SOURCE(s) to 
the existing DIRECTORY, while setting permission modes and owner/group. 
In the 4th form, create all components of the given DIRECTORY(ies). 

Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too. 
*****--backup[=CONTROL] *make a backup of each existing destination file 
*-b *****************like --backup but does not accept an argument 
*-c *****************(ignored) 
*-C, --compare ******compare each pair of source and destination files, and 
***********************in some cases, do not modify the destination at all 
*-d, --directory ****treat all arguments as directory names; create all 
***********************components of the specified directories 
*-D *****************create all leading components of DEST except the last, 
***********************then copy SOURCE to DEST 
*-g, --group=GROUP **set group ownership, instead of process' current group 
*-m, --mode=MODE ****set permission mode (as in chmod), instead of rwxr-xr-x 
*-o, --owner=OWNER **set ownership (super-user only) 
*-p, --preserve-timestamps **apply access/modification times of SOURCE files 
***********************to corresponding destination files 
*-s, --strip ********strip symbol tables 
*****--strip-program=PROGRAM *program used to strip binaries 
*-S, --suffix=SUFFIX *override the usual backup suffix 
*-t, --target-directory=DIRECTORY *copy all SOURCE arguments into DIRECTORY 
*-T, --no-target-directory *treat DEST as a normal file 
*-v, --verbose ******print the name of each directory as it is created 
*****--preserve-context *preserve SELinux security context 
*-Z *********************set SELinux security context of destination 
***************************file to default type 
*****--context[=CTX] ****like -Z, or if CTX is specified then set the 
***************************SELinux or SMACK security context to CTX 
*****--help ****display this help and exit 
*****--version *output version information and exit 

The backup suffix is '~', unless set with --suffix or SIMPLE_BACKUP_SUFFIX. 
The version control method may be selected via the --backup option or through 
the VERSION_CONTROL environment variable. *Here are the values: 

*none, off ******never make backups (even if --backup is given) 
*numbered, t ****make numbered backups 
*existing, nil **numbered if numbered backups exist, simple otherwise 
*simple, never **always make simple backups
