Dear fellow testers,

I tried to use xterm but it was not installed, so I wanted to yum install
it, and I got message in the title.

rm -rf /var/lib/rpm/__db.*

should allow you to continue. At least it does to me. :-)

Are you by any chance using ext4 as the filesystem? There seems to be a pattern developing here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=468437 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=471411


Aha - ext4 root here as well.

rpmdb corruption first started happening again for me on F9 around November 10th, and looking back at the yum.log an updates-testing kernel from a few days earlier

   Nov 07 08:49:30 Installed: kernel-2.6.27.4-26.fc9.x86_64

I've had to rm /var/lib/rpm/__* 4 times in the past few days to allow yum/rpm to continue.
