Hi Rodney -
First make sure you don't have aptitude, apt or dpkg or dselect, or
synaptic, or gnome-apt etc etc in the middle of something somewhere on
another login/console.
The remove the lock files...
ok lets see if I can remember all of them.
rm /var/cache/apt/archives/lock
rm /var/lib/aptitude
I'm attempting to upgrade my friends laptop. As root, running "aptitude
update". it does it's thing, but at the end I get this message;
