Just tried it - same thing, it freezes. Happens for "su", "su -", and
"sudo".
Two things that I have done in the past to resolve problems with rpm and yum commands that hang.
1) rm /var/lib/rpm/__db.00*
I'm not sure what information is held in these files, but deleting them seems to clear up some problems. The files get automatically re-created
2) yum clean all
Number (1) did the trick. I had tried 'yum clean all', but that was
also freezing. Seems to be back to normal - thanks!
