You're absolutely right! 'ps ax' did show an aptitude still running in 
state "S". Killing that solved the problem.

It is really weird that it was still running though as I did break out of 
it and even exited the controlling ssh session. So it must somehow have 
gooten disconnected from the controlling terminal too.

Not yet available for HPPA.


I'm reducing the severity to normal as a segfault is still not a very 
pretty way to notify a user that there is another instance running.
Note that, unless my memory is really deserting me, it also segfaulted 
before I removed the locks.

If this is a duplicate report for a known issue, feel free to close it.

Cheers,
FJP

P.S. The garbled display issue (#406193) is really gone with the latest 
versions. I've not seen that anymore. Nice job!
