[Bug 952435] Re: package man-db 2.5.7-4 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[Colin Watson]

debconf: DbDriver "templatedb": /var/cache/debconf/templates.dat is
locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable

This indicates that another package management program is running,
perhaps in the background.  The remedy is to find it and shut it down.
It is not a bug in man-db, even though man-db is affected by it (along
with many other packages).

** Changed in: man-db (Ubuntu)
