Warning: Couldn't remove lockfile $lock: $!

Error: Failed to remove expired lockfile $lockfile: $!

Warning: Folder already locked with file $lockfile

Error: Package $package does not implement $method.

Fatal error: the specific package (or one of its superclasses) does not implement this method where it should. This message means that some other related classes do implement this method however the class at hand does not. Probably you should investigate this and probably inform the author of the package.
