I am sorry if this is already listed somewhere. I tried to search on google, but couldn't find the clue.
We have a x86 box running redhat 8.0. We decided to upgrade glibc 3.2.2 as some packages don't get compiled with glibc 2.2.95. We downloaded the src rpm (glibc-2.3.2-11.9.src.rpm) and compiled it on our machine using rpmbuild. RPM building went on fine.
We first upgraded glibc-common and then glibc. That was it and rpm started giving segmentation fault for all rpms just after that. All other programs seem to run fine except rpm. Following is the output from rpm:

As other programs are not showing problems, this problem seems to be specific to rpm. Please help me out!!
