Problem with bk repository?

Hello

In the last few days and weeks, i'm seeing in increasing number of
errors like this:

david@devil:/repository/linuxppc_2_4_devel>bk parent
Parent repository is bk://ppc.bkbits.net/linuxppc_2_4_devel
david@devil:/repository/linuxppc_2_4_devel>bk pull -ll
ERROR-Can't get read lock on the repository.
pull: remote locked, trying again...
ERROR-Can't get read lock on the repository.
pull: remote locked, trying again...
ERROR-Can't get read lock on the repository.
pull: remote locked, trying again...
ERROR-Can't get read lock on the repository.
pull: remote locked, trying again...


Is this something to worry about or just some kind of "bandwidth
limitation"?

Are either of you still getting this?  What seems to be happening is
that when David Gibson pushes something to the tree, it never quite
finishes and Bk ends up in a slightly wierd state.  David, are you
behind some sort of wierd network setup or anything?

Ah, crap.  I did run into this the other day - I did a push which got
interrupted (connection closed by foreign host - probably due to
SOCKS).  After that my pulls (and attempts to push again) complained
that there was a lock.  But paulus had a look at the parent repository
where 'll' denied that there was any lock - at least it did the second
time it was invoked.  My pulls were still failing and I was going to
send out a mail, but the next day it seemed to be working again, so I
figured it was a once off breakage.

I guess I was wrong.

I'm not sure if my last push was interrupted, or whether there was
some residual breakage from the earlier push in the repository which
got triggered again by the later push.

Pulls are working again for me now, so I'm not sure what to do next to
investigate this.
