We are running 2.6.18-128.1.6.el5xen on our server.
Recently "yum update", "yum localinstall TIV*.rpm --nogpgcheck",
and versions of "rpm -U xterm" hang. yum hangs up on the transition
check after all the packages have been downloaded. "rpm -U" tells
me which dependencies that I need, but hangs if I include the
dependencies in the list of programs to upgrade.
"rpm --rebuildbd" seems to work.
How do I start debugging this problem?
Is there any clue in /var/log/yum.log?
I discovered that the rpm database may not be working correctly.
"rpm -qa kernel" brings back nothing
rpm -qa | grep kernel
kernel-xen-2.6.18-128.1.6.el5

That actually makes sense - you don't have the plain kernel on the
system.
If you did rpm -qi kernel-xen, you'd get an answer.

The kernel on which the system is running is xen, but the problem with
rpm and yum still exists.
