[Bug 487014] [NEW] Dist upgrade from Hardy to Karmic does not work without python-qt4

[ErwanH]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: adept

Trying to upgrade from Hardy to Karmic with adept_updater fails if
python-qt4 is not installed. It shows this unhelpful message:

    Unable to get exclusive lock

   This usually means that another package management application (like
   apt-get or aptitude) [sic] already running. Please close that application
   first.

Running sudo adept_updater gave a hint about python-qt4 which you don't
have with the GUI.

Once python-qt4 was installed it went OK (except for flashplugin-
nonfree).

** Affects: adept (Ubuntu)
