I'm trying to install libdnet-1.12 Package for Snort and trying to get checkinstall to work. But it keeps saying:
Copying documentation directory...
./
./INSTALL
./README
./THANKS
./TODO
./LICENSE
Copying files to the temporary directory...OK
Stripping ELF binaries and libraries...OK
Compressing man pages...OK
Building file list...OK
Building Debian package...OK
Installing Debian package... FAILED!
This is what's in the log file:
dpkg: error: dpkg status database is locked by another process /var/tmp/tmp.BI2nXpK3CZ/dpkginstall.log
Anyone know how I can fix this and get it to work? I can't find anything on what to do to fix this
