Similarly, if a package manager is running and Rhythmbox or Totem prompts for a codec install, the same conflict produces different error messages.
"Unable to get exclusive lock
This usually means that another package management application (like apt-get or aptitude) is already running. Please close that application first."
And that after clicking OK:
"No packages installed
None of the selected packages were installed."
