Public bug reported: Binary package hint: man-db
Was installing deluge (torrent program) with apt-get. The downloading phase had just finished. In another terminal I ran `sudo tasksel`. I didn't run anything in the tasksel window. Then the apt-get of deluge failed. 1) jake@daedalus64:~/src/quodlibet-2.3$ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 11.04 Release: 11.04 2) ? 3) I expected the install of deluge to finish, OR tasksel to fail to open as an installer like synaptic and apt-get do when there is another installer running. 4) tasksel didn't not warn of another installer running, and caused the other installer to fail.
