      Description

      I've got this error when I try to update an actor using pfsinstall

      Unable to take exclusive lock on /software/mhs/products: locks are held by [user=pfs, pid=8180]; retrying
      eups declare: Unable to take exclusive lock on /software/mhs/products: locks are held by [user=pfs, pid=8180] [user=pfs, pid=15946]

      I removed the file by hand, but this not a good way to proceed, so what is the procedure for that ? btw what the purpose of the lockdir ?
