[Bug 425045] Re: grub 2 install unsuccesful and now can't run update manager

[Rolf Leggewie]

cannot get out of. Did this ever occur in lucid or later?

  can't run synaptic or update manager after trying to upgrade to grub 2.  New message reading can't lock device because either apt-get or aptitude is running please close program.  here is the following message I get when trying to run either program :E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem. 
  E: _cache->open() failed, please report.   when attempting to run that very command then the first message comes up.
