Subject Re: lock conversion denied/lock denied bug still exists in FB 2.5.3

  No ths is not related to subject, this is another issue.
I have few such reports from customers but without test case to reproduce it.
I suspect this is related to garbage collection of a very long versions chain (ten's backversions for the same record).
gstat -r could confirm it.
