As in #111 but on 15.10.
I got this error after the "Add printer driver"-UI hanged while trying to add
openprinting-gutenprint.
This is the process locking the config.dat:
|-aptd-+-aptd-+-dpkg
| | `-sh---dpkg-preconfigu---dpkg-preconfigu
I had tried to install the printer driver three times.
So when I found this bug report two days later, I had to run `sudo fuser -vik
/var/cache/debconf/config.dat` three times.
Apparently they were waiting in some queue and locked the file (and then
hanged) when I kill the current locking process.
