[Bug 1215450] Re: Wrong password message, when another process is installing a package

[wjm]

Well, it seems like i am not the only one.
I have read negative reviews on ubuntu software center, and they were people complaining about this.
if you google "gdebi wrong password" you will find more.

let's see if someone else is able to reproduce it and spot the bug.

cheers

Title:
  Wrong password message, when another process is installing a package

Status in “gdebi” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I tried to install a .deb package, and I kept getting this error message when I am prompt to enter my admin password:
  "Incorrect password... try again"

  Passsword was correct, i tried it several times, the problem is that
  there is another service like Ubuntu Software Center  installing
  something else.

  I ran
  `sudo dpkg -i file.deb`
  while still installing this other package,
  and i got this message: 
  dpkg: error: dpkg status database is locked by another process

  Message should be changed,
  thanks

  Package version:  gdebi 0.9~exp2
  Ubuntu 13.04
