Public bug reported: Binary package hint: man-db
Tried to install Java Run Time. It gave a message in the terminal and the message just would not leave. There was a "OK" but it was not a link that could be clicked to see what was happening in the terminal. So I had to close the terminal. When I tried again it kept saying another process was in progress apt-get or aptitude. Then I tried sudo killall -9 apt-get sudo rm /var/lib/dpkg/lock. I tried to get the Java Run TIme installed again but I just could not go anywhere. I am new to Ubuntu 10.4. I have upgraded to Ubuntu 10.10 and now to 11.04.
