[opensuse] Smart package manager problem

I asked this question a few days ago but it got no reply, so I am
asking again in the hope that someone may know.

Smart hosed up (hung, quit, froze, whatever) and I killed it with the 
kill command. Subsequent launches give the warning that the configuration
is read only, even as root. If I use cli (smart --gui --ignore-locks) then it 
works.

I have looked in what I thought were the obvious places for a lock file but I 
cannot find one. I also searched through the mail list archives and bug 
reports for Smart to see if anyone else reported the problem but nothing 
came back. Anyone know where the lock file is hiding?

Thanks,
Fred
