during an aptitute update after the dist-upgrade I saw :

useradd : impossible de verrouiller /etc/passwd ; veuillez réessayer plus tard.
...
and 
..;
useradd : impossible de verrouiller /etc/shadow ; veuillez réessayer plus tard

so il have removed 2 files!
/etc/passwd.lock
/etc/shadow.lock

commands to use:

sudo mv /etc/passwd.lock /etc/passwd.lock.bak
sudo mv /etc/shadow.lock /etc/shadow.lock.bak
sudo aptitude safe-upgrade -y


now packages are configured properly!
