Greetings all; I re-added the amd64 architecture to the architecture's in dpkg/synaptic, but the package -> force-version remains stubbornly ghosted, so I cannot fix any broken patckages that are preventing the install of any updates.
So I try to have dpkg remove the amd64 aarchitecture, but now get a database is locked error. The system is working, quite stably, but I cannot update anything. A dpkg -C spits out about 60 files in error, all tagged :amd64. What are the steps I should take to fix this?
