The /usr/local/bin version of python came from my manually building and installing Python 2.7.6 as part of my attempts to build FreeCAD.
If I hide all of the /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/lib Python components, the original is unable to find modules - even if I set PYTHONPATH and PYTHONHOME.
Among other things, this breaks my Apache httpd setup.
Reverting to the /usr/local versions gets everything except yum working.
I then attempted to folow your suggestion re reinstalling rpm.
Unfortunately, that fails due to dependencies.
After some 22 years playing with (and contributing to) Linux, I should know rpm better - but I don't know how to safely overcome the following:
[root@mustang downloads]# rpm -Uvh --replacepkgs rpm-4.9.1.3-8.fc17.x86_64.rpm warning: rpm-4.9.1.3-8.fc17.x86_64.rpm: Header V3 RSA/SHA256 Signature, key ID 1aca3465: NOKEY error: Failed dependencies: rpm = 4.9.1.3-6.fc17 is needed by (installed) rpm-libs-4.9.1.3-6.fc17.x86_64 rpm = 4.9.1.3-6.fc17 is needed by (installed) rpm-python-4.9.1.3-6.fc17.x86_64 rpm = 4.9.1.3-6.fc17 is needed by (installed) rpm-build-4.9.1.3-6.fc17.x86_64 rpm = 4.9.1.3-6.fc17 is needed by (installed) rpm-devel-4.9.1.3-6.fc17.x86_64
Cheers and thanks, Stephen
