And now my rpm database appears to be hosed, even an rpm --rebuilddb seems 
to be hung in sleep state, no cpu usage and if I want to kill it, I'll 
have to do a SIGKILL on it from htop.  But, in the FWIW category, before 
I started that, it reported there was no java installed, without any 
errors.

Now what the heck do I do?
