Check "ps" for another dpkg process. "dpkg-lockwait" deliberately prevents multiple dpkg operations to reduce the chance of corrupting the dpkg database. Otherwise, it's possible that you've got an orphaned lock file in /sw/var/lib/dpkg/lock -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison My package updates: http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Put Bad Developers to Shame Dominate Development with Jenkins Continuous Integration Continuously Automate Build, Test & Deployment Start a new project now.
