  update-apt-xapian-index crashed with DatabaseLockError in __init__():
  Unable to get write lock on /var/cache/apt-xapian-index/index.2:
  already locked

  New

Bug description:
  I was installing on a new computer and was just updating the packages.
  I went away and when I got back the computer was locked. I unlocked it
  and saw this problem dialog. Btw I'm installing on an older SSD disk
  that might have disk errors?
