    Adept Error - Another process is running?

    For two days I've been unable to use Adept. Adept update notifier says there is one package to upgrade but when I start Adept I receive:
    Code:
    Another process is using the packaging system database (probably some other Adept application or apt-get or aptitude). Please close the other application before using this one.
    When I click ok to close the message Adept opens but is unusable.
    The only Apt related application running presently in KDE System Guard is, adept-notifier. I've tried closing it and opening Adept, still get the same error.
    Any suggestions as to what might be causing this and how to fix it would be appreciated.
    I tried the fix from this post http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/index.php?topic=8449.0
    Now Adept starts but when I select to upgrade the packages and "Apply changes" it just hangs.

    The command from the link worked after the second try.
