Thanks. Trying the update, ended up with:
X " Verifying integrity"
Edit: second try runs without an issue.

My biggest issue with Nextcloud at the moment is file locking not working well. Any idea if there have been any updates to this? We seem to have quite a few users getting into trouble because they are working on files that are already open by others.

I spot nothing in the change list for the beta 2. Not sure, perhaps you spot an issue in the bug tracker that describes the problem, so you can follow and see which version potentially contains a fix.
