[Bug 349469] Re: debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable

[Clint Byrum]

Everybody, the problem is by now well understood. There is a need to
have debconf not explode in a fiery ball of errors when something else
has the database locked.

As such, there's no need to post your ps tree anymore, but thank you
everyone who has!
