+Subject: [PATCH] lock.py: fix Exception handling
+
+Before, when logdir is not writable, _try_lock will raise an Exception
+like "Permission denied: '/var/log/log_lock.pid'", and in this case,
+_unlock_thread will not be called and the variable count will not be
+handled, it maybe cause log_lock.pid not be deleted in case like [1].
+
+For [1], it is an cross compile case, when dnf install some packages to
+rootfs, seems like some threads don't do chroot like work, some threads
+do chroot like work. so for the threads don't do chroot, "Permission denied"
+Exception happend, for the threads that do chroot, log_lock.pid will be
+created under installroot/var/log/log_lock.pid, since variable count not
+handled correct before, log_lock.pid may not be deleted correctly.
+
+So fixed like this, if _try_lock raise Exception, _unlock_thread first,
+then raise the Exception.
