[Bug 434390] Re: "Cannot Get Lock" Displayed Over and Over Again From KPackagekit
This bug was fixed in the package kpackagekit - 0.5.4-0ubuntu2 --- kpackagekit (0.5.4-0ubuntu2) lucid; urgency=low * Switch to source format 3.0 (quilt) * Don't use the quilt dh addon. It was causing an FTBFS since there wasn't a build-depend on quilt and with source format 3.0 we don't need it * Remove unnecessary build-depend on cdbs * Bump build-depend version of pkg-kde-tools to support the earliest version that included the kde dh addon (0.5.0) * Bump required version of libpackagekit-qt-dev to 0.5.5 as specified by CMakeLists.txt * Bump the binary package's packagekit dependency to 0.5.5 as well * Replace dependency on kdebase-workspace-bin with polkit-kde-1, as it needs the polkit-1 stuff now * Bugs fixed in 0.5.x: LP: #256245, #434390, #458375, #460550, #486091, #458868, #460459 LP: #460459, #460459 -- Jonathan ThomasThu, 28 Jan 2010 22:22:09 -0500 ** Changed in: kpackagekit (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Committed => Fix Released -- "Cannot Get Lock" Displayed Over and Over Again From KPackagekit https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/434390 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 434390] Re: "Cannot Get Lock" Displayed Over and Over Again From KPackagekit
After leaving synaptic running for 24 hours, I logged into my desktop, and there are like 100 stacked kpackagekit error messages. The error messages were so much that the window manager disabled composite functionality. After closing all the windows, my desktop is unusable, it basically left me with nothing to do but reboot. I guess I could have restarted X.org from a ssh session, as I have the default ctl+alt+backspace disabled. Luckily alt+F2 worked and allowed me to issue a reboot command, which allowed me to restart the window manager without a full reboot. This has to be the worst error handling I have ever seen, in any system (cept maybe the blue screen of death), and I think it is more than just a problem with kpackagekit. Instead of a single error console-like window to display errors, there are windows that get stacked off the screen, eventually consuming the system or window manager memory. This should NEVER happen, error messages are error messages, and should not allow a denial of service to the window manager. Please escalate this to the KDE team, or who ever needs to know. -- "Cannot Get Lock" Displayed Over and Over Again From KPackagekit https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/434390 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kpackagekit in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

This also happens when synaptic is running. IMHO, kpackagekit should display explicit error messages only when it was explicitly launched by user. When kpackagekit is implicitly running (i.e. performing some background tasks, like checking for updates), it should not disturb the user with error messages. -- "Cannot Get Lock" Displayed Over and Over Again From KPackagekit https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/434390 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kpackagekit in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
[Bug 434390] Re: "Cannot Get Lock" Displayed Over and Over Again From KPackagekit
I can confirm this. To reproduce this issue I left aptitude running and at ~ 11:45 pm kpackagekit started checking for updates and I got the first message. After that kpackagekit retried the update-check every ~15min. Since the previous notification doesn't vanish they just start accumulating. While I'm writing this I have 6 kpackagkit notifications on my screen. ** Changed in: kpackagekit (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- "Cannot Get Lock" Displayed Over and Over Again From KPackagekit https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/434390 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kpackagekit in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list kubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs

Hello there, Thanks for reporting this bug to us and for helping to make Kubuntu better. I've looked at your bug and it shouldn't come up with those ammount of messages while performing 'apt-get'. I've marked this bug as it effects the package 'kpackagekit'. Awaiting for this to get confirmed by other users.
