Sorry, correction, rpmdrake, not harddrake. The problem of using rpm
4.0.3-6 with any graphical interface of getting "error while loading
shared libraries: /usr/lib/librpm.so.0: undefined symbol:
fpHashFunction" seems to have been reported by a number of people as
well as myself. Could installing rpm after other rpm-based programs
prevent rpmdrake, gnorpm, kpackage from working and cause them to throw
up this error, plus being unable to query the existance of packages,
even after doing a "rebuilddb", from the console programs? 
I'll try reinstalling the cooker packages, being very careful that rpm
is compiled first, and after I've downloaded locales.
