Cool

turns it was some weirdness with the synaptic automatic package manager keeping some file locked, instead of dropping it when you run a command line updater like aptitude like it usually does

. (and the synaptic updater wouldnt update till i closed the root terminal window that i tried updating aptitude on strangely enough, even though the process ended. maybe it was just a coincidence and it was just still in use, i diddnt wait too long :P
