I just installed 3.4.4-4-402 on Linux-Mint-Lisa (LM12) and it installed
fine using 'sudo dpkg -i *.deb'.

I thought perhaps it might be an issue with the Quickstart in LM12 LO.
So I uninstalled the /opt version, and then enabled the Quickstart
feature in the LM12 version[1]. Then with the Quickstart enabled I
reinstalled again; no issues.

Sorry, I can't replicate or figure out what might be causing the .lock.
Maybe do a 'locate' and see if you can identify one that may be related
to LO.

$ sudo updatedb
$ locate .~lock
$ locate .lock

[1] The version supplied with LM 12 is 3.4.4-4-402 when fully updated
from the repositories.
