How about apt-get sense that synaptic or adept is running and say so? I mean, if you are going to refer to specific package managers in your error output, you might as well sense for them as well.

Eg:
apt-get was unable to complete the operation you requested, because there is another package manager running. Please close "Synaptic Package Manager" and try again.
