How do I remove Automatix2?

[jacatone]

I installed Automatix2 because it seemed to have a lot of software Adept didn't have in Kubuntu 7.04. But the programs seems problematic. When I trying removing it with: "sudo aptitude remove automatix2", I get a "can't get a lock, are you root" answer. Anyone know how to remove this thing? Thanks.

if you have synaptic open in the background then it will give you this error also,

 

so make sure you close synaptic first then try again
