In this case, something called packagekitd was already running when you tried the update. packagekitd has locked the update resources which is preventing a manually initiated update.
If it is a background task, you just need to wait for it to finish.
Thanks for the reply Steve,
However, I did wait for an hour and tried initiating the update process again.
I experienced a circular process for a while, whereupon I was sent back to start; asking me to "install updates", which I had already started.
I will turn the computer off and try again tonight.
I will report back again after that.
Jim.
