Looks sort like something I discusses some days ago with Julian; topic "Lock
files" ,-)))
Just remove the lock file and everything should be working again. Check the
file permissions of the current file and of the user running the update.
I'd place a bet the later one cannot create the file, i.e. it's another's
user's file.

No, it stays there even after the update.
