Unable to obtain lock file acquired by me ....

Asked by Vy Nguyen

I was committing my files to launchpad using bzr, and while I was in the middle of the process, I accidentally closed the terminal. So later on, when I tried to push the files again, I got this error message saying "unable to obtain lock file acquired by [me] 5 minutes ago...."

What should I do ?

The message should mention that you can run 'bzr break-lock' if you know the
lock is stale.
