I will now run the cvs command to retrieve the latest package descriptions. After that, the core packages will be updated right away; you should then update the other packages using commands like 'fink update-all'.

Try building just this current package fink-mirrors (i.e, "fink build fink-mirrors"). When that has completed successfully, you could retry whatever you did that led to the present error. Regardless of the cause of the lock failure, don't worry: you have not wasted compiling time! Packages that had been completely built before this error occurred will not have to be recompiled.
