A problem about pubring.gpg.lock

[Matthew M. Copeland]

I am getting a similiar error message.

gpg: waiting for lock (hold by 9007 -probably dead)...

This was the first time I had done gpg--edit-key, I added two uids, and
did a save and got the above error until I quited.  I am using gpg0.9.2 on
redhat 5.1 running Red Hat 5.1 kerenl 2.0.35
