--- Begin Message ---Package: packagekit-backend-aptcc Version: 0.7.5-2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, When i get a notification that there are some available updates, if i use apper to do the updates, wait for it to finish, and then close it, if i run apt-get install <package_name> i get an error that "Could not get lock /var/cache/apt/archives/lock - open". I check processes running, and i see apper-sentinel.Killing it doesn't make any difference. There is however a "packagekitd" process.Killing it does the trick. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-3-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages packagekit-backend-aptcc depends on: ii app-install-data 2012.06.16.1 ii libapt-inst1.5 0.9.7.4 ii libapt-pkg4.12 0.9.7.4 ii libc6 2.13-35 ii libgcc1 1:4.7.1-7 ii libglib2.0-0 2.32.3-1 ii libgstreamer0.10-0 0.10.36-1 ii libstdc++6 4.7.1-7 ii libxml2 2.8.0+dfsg1-5 ii python 2.7.3~rc2-1 ii python-packagekit 0.7.5-2 Versions of packages packagekit-backend-aptcc recommends: ii apt-xapian-index 0.45 ii packagekit 0.7.5-2 Versions of packages packagekit-backend-aptcc suggests: pn gdebi-core <none> -- no debconf information

--- Begin Message ---Hi! Please do never kill packagekitd, you might damage your sysrem with that in case it is still performing APT operations in the background! Newer versions of PackageKit have refined logic for locking and release the APT lock sooner, so encountering this situation *without* PK actually doing anything is a lot less likely. In addition, we also updated APT to give more informative messages in case caches are locked. Cheers, Matthias
