Not sure if this will help....

Was updating an Xfce spin of Rawhide, and part way through the update I 
was thrown back to the greeter.  I logged back in and tried to run the 
update again but was being blocked by another process (note the system 
didn't reboot).

I did a "ps ax" to see what was going on and here is the end bit:
