Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: computer-janitor
Sometimes computer-janitor fails when removing packages, with:
"Could not clean up properly
E:Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)"
This error message is not clear. On running the application again, it
removed the packages successfully.
What went wrong? I had kicked off update-manager earlier, perhaps it was
a locking problem.
