If Subversion would just delete the file in your working copy, you would
loose your local modification. So that's why the error occurs.

Your 'update' command got interrupted, it couldn't complete because it
had to stop on your locally modified file. So after an interrupted
command, you have to execute the 'cleanup' command to get your working
copy in a clean state again.
After that, that error message should not show up anymore.
