hello everyone

for the past several months now, whenever the YUM-deamon goes to automatically update, it just says "waiting for other tasks" and after about 10 min it says "can't get yum lock, other program accessing yum" or something to that effect.
i get the same message if i try to manually install programs using the graphical program in gNu.

is there another deamon that also could be using yum or the database for programs?

i haven't had too much time to trouble shoot the past few months, so i can't give you better descriptions i'm afraid.

thanks for your time

PackageKit if you're on Fedora. You can kill it's PID or just wait a minute or so.

hmm.. for some reason i can't seem to find that PID.

but then so far my computer hasn't gone to autoupdate.
