DIAGNOSTICS
    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.

    Warning: Removed expired lockfile $lockfile
