As I see,apt and dpkg seem to function normally.
The effect is that apt frontends that were running when you deleted the lock files will not lock out apt frontends that are started after the lock files are deleted. If there weren't any running apt programs or if they've all exited, you should be fine. Daniel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
