So this is really weird. I get an infinite select loop as shown below when
I run this script right after rebuiling the rpm database:
================================================================
#!/bin/sh
vv=-vv
debug=--debug
cli_prefix=
cli_rpm_version='lms-cli-2.8'
cli_rpm_file=`ls -1 'RPMS/i386/'"$cli_rpm_version"*'.i386.rpm' | tail -1`
cli_rpm_buildnum=`echo "$cli_rpm_file" | sed
's,^RPMS/i386/\(.*\).i386.rpm$,\1,'`
# echo Installing "$cli_rpm_version" ...
if rpm -q lms-cli 2>/dev/null | grep -q '^lms-cli'; then
strace -o strace rpm -i $vv\
$cli_prefix --oldpackage "$cli_rpm_file"\
|| exit 3
fi
===================================================================
If I do not execute the rpm -q in the "if", then it succeeds, but
subsequent rpm operations will hang. Here is the strace - anything look
familiar?
