When I update my system using apt update or try to install a new package with aptitude or apt, I receive this error :



Error : GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.systemd1.UnitMasked : Unit packagekit.service is masked.


I tried this Cannot restart samba, samba.service is masked. This does not fix my problem. I also researched but can't find anything about this problem.



When I run the commands:



 Unit unit.service does not exist, proceeding anyway.


I use Ubuntu Budgie 17.10 - 64 Bit.
