** Description changed: Binary package hint: apt When I ran APT the last time successfully, the command hung at - "Unpacking", so I decided to 'killall -9' it and blame the problem on an - infinite loop. - - The next time I ran APT, even with nothing but Firefox and the terminal - running, I got the attached message (along with any equivalent messages - in the GUI programs that depend on it) and keep getting it, every time I - run the programs. + "Unpacking". I made the mistake of killing it, and so I decided to rm + the /var/lib/dpkg/lock file and run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a'. I now + definitely think that it might be an infinite loop causing the problem, + as it hangs without consuming any CPU.
