Having trouble with Yaourt- Manjaro Linux

[-Setro-]

Upon trying to install some software with yaourt, it says:

Code: [Select]

Pacman is currently in use, please wait.
And it doesn't do anything. I've waited like 15 minutes and it still says the same thing.
Why is it doing this?
I've tried it with other software, doesn't work.
Restarting doesn't work.

not sure how you're supposed to say yes when it prompts you, do you just press enter or something?

Either do rm -rf /var/lib/pacman/db.lck or type "y" then hit enter if it asks you to say yes.
