[Yum-devel] [PATCH] Always lock the user cachedir

[Zdenek Pavlas]

Since commit 0f034091e4388026b10ca0ec5c486d0313ca71b8
users run in user cachedir ALSO when --cacheonly, and
we should lock.

Only when setCacheDir() was skipped, we're using the
root cache (and can't lock anyway, since it's RDONLY).
