After you login usually Fedora checks to see if there are updates available. 
During that time, the package manager locks its database to avoid conflict. 
If you are trying to "Add / Remove Software" at that moment, you'll get that 
message. What you could do is wait few minutes for the process that checks 
for updates to complete, and then try again.
