Sudo apt update not working

Post Body

Everytime I do sudo apt update I get the following message

nick@pop-os:~$ sudo apt update

[sudo] password for nick:

Reading package lists... Done

E: Could not get lock /var/lib/apt/lists/lock. It is held by process 1245 (packagekitd)

N: Be aware that removing the lock file is not a solution and may break your system.

E: Unable to lock directory /var/lib/apt/lists/

I am sure there is a simply fix.
