Although the man page for apt-get indicates the --simluate means locking will be disabled, testing indicates it isn't. Indeed, regulary collecting facts causes it to clash with the apt_update Exec occasionally, resulting in failures to lock /var/lib/dpkg Spefically setting the NoLocking option fixes the issue.
