The yum db just killed itself on my x86_64 fc5 box.
[root@arbol ~]# yum list
rpmdb: PANIC: fatal region error detected; run recovery
error: db4 error(-30977) from dbenv->open: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run data
error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - (-30977)
I then found some advice via google to rebuild the db so I did:
/bin/rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db.*
rpm --initdb
rpm --rebuilddb
chown rpm:rpm /var/lib/rpm/__db.*
That sort of got things hobbling along, but now livna doesn't work.
ftp://mirrors.tummy.com/pub/rpm.livna.org/fedora/Null/x86_64g/repodata/repomd.xml
It looks like the "fc5" that goes between "fedora" and "x86_64" is
missing. I take it some part of the db didn't get totally rebuilt?
Do I need to somehow stuff the "fc5" release name into the db by hand?
