It may be you need to simply remove the files /var/lib/rpm/__db*, but in the version of rpm in the head of CVS their was a problem with it locking up on scriptlet execution (still not completely convinced its fixed, but I know Jeff did some stuff to get rid of it). At anyrate, the backtrace from gdb should yield some helpful info. If you have never done it, you just get the process ID, and then do: gdb -p (pid) bt The second command is inside gdb. <snip> > <----Just Hangs after this----> > > This is the %pre script in the spec file: > %pre > if [ ! -d /opt/running ] ; then > mkdir /opt/running > fi > if [ ! -L /opt/nimRunning ] ; then > ln -sf /opt/running /opt/nimRunning > fi > if [ ! -L /opt/imlRunning ] ; then > ln -sf /opt/running /opt/imlRunning > fi > > if [ ! -d /opt/standby ] ; then > mkdir /opt/standby > fi > if [ ! -L /opt/nimStandby ] ; then > ln -sf /opt/standby /opt/nimStandby > fi > if [ ! -L /opt/imlStandby ] ; then > ln -sf /opt/standby /opt/imlStandby > fi > Just an aside, you probably want to explitly exit with 0 at the end of your script, and the ln command can fail, so checking its return code is not a bad ides.
