I have a system (Centos 4.4 all packages uptodate) where almost every rpm or yum operation fails with a message like e.g.:

error: %preun(a2ps-4.13b-41.i386) scriptlet failed, exit status 255

some times the error is on %post()

I can do the install /remove/update with --noscripts, but that doesn't seem like a good idea.

rpm --rebuilddb has not helped

selinux is enabled but permissive.

I've seen a few mentions of this on google, but found no solution.

Anybody experienced this?

I'm going to follow up to my own post.

When I had this problem, I had selinux enabled but permissive. I finally had a chance to restart the system, and restarted it with selinux disabled. rpm works properly now.

When I get another chance to reboot, I will try turning it back on and relabeling the file system; but it might be a while before I can do that.
