yum lock 的問題

1.找出 PackageKit

#ps aux | grep PackageKit

>root 9809 1.8 4.5 944132 177120 ? SN 17:28 0:21 /usr/bin/python /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/yum/yumBackend.py get-updates none

>root 10723 0.0 0.0 112656 968 pts/2 S+ 17:47 0:00 grep --color=auto PackageKit

#kill -9 9809

假如仍

Existing lock /var/run/yum.pid: another copy is running as pid 9809.
Another app is currently holding the yum lock; waiting for it to exit...
Another app is currently holding the yum lock; waiting for it to exit...
Another app is currently holding the yum lock; waiting for it to exit...

^C

Exiting on user cancel.

一般程序執行時候，lock file 會放在 /var/lock/subsys/ 目錄，但此處沒有 yum 或 python 或 PackageKit

[root@localhost ~]# ls /var/lock/subsys/
abrt-ccpp auditd crond local network rpc.statd
abrtd autofs cups lvm2-monitor NetworkManager rsyslog
acpid blk-availability haldaemon messagebus postfix sshd
atd certmonger ip6tables netfs rpcbind udev-post
[root@localhost ~]#

從剛剛的訊息
Existing lock /var/run/yum.pid: another copy is running as pid 9809.
yum 的 lock file 是 /var/run/yum.pid，用 rm -fr 指令刪除

[root@localhost ~]# rm -fr /var/run/yum.pid

OK
