Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: update-manager
I startet an Upgrade from Gutsy to Hardy (beta) by typing kdesu
"adept_manager --dist-upgrade-devel" into the command box. The Upgrade
was working well, until it tried to update Firefox. Terminal output
reported:
dpkg: Status-Datenbank-Bereich ist von einem anderen Prozess gesperrt
(see logs in Attachment)
The update process crashed and adviced me to do "dpkg --configure -a".
It did some things, but didn't seem to solve the whole situation. So I
tried a "sudo apt-get -f install", which reported that "language-
support-en" is missing. After manually installing "language-support-en"
I tried to do a "sudo apt-get upgrade". Most of the downloaded packages
then where installed correctly.
Finally I did another kdesu "adept_manager --dist-upgrade-devel", which
installed the newest kernel and about 60 other missing packages. The
rest of the Upgrade Process went smoothly.
I remember, that i manually uninstalled the "language-support-en" for
some reason I can't remember anymore. So if this really was the problem,
maybe it should be a dependency, which the Uprade Process solves by
itself.
But since I'm not a professional, I don't have any clue, if it was even
related to "language-support-en". I hope the logs are of any help. I'm
trying a reboot my PC now.
