Apt-get problems when my PC freeze
My pc freezes when I were doing a dist upgrade and I restarted in the hard
way. Now the apt-get doesn't work. This is the error:
After unpacking 0B of additional disk space will be used.

Of course I just tried to delete de dir.lock file but nothing happen.
Suggestions?
