Severity: wishlist

Some commands like "show" and "why", "why-not", needn't try to lock 
/var/lib/dpkg/lock
# aptitude show scim-gtk2-immodule
E: Could not get lock /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (11 Resource temporarily 
unavailable)
E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), is another 
process using it?

As the merged http://bugs.debian.org/650179 shows, this happens only
as root, so a workaround is to call this command as user instead.

Since I used the word "workaround", the issue only appears when
running the command as root but not as normal user, and since I felt
the urge to tag it as "confirmed", this is definitely more severe than
just "wishlist".

I'm hence raising the severity to "minor" (only, since there is a
workaround).

Fixed now, marking as + pending.
