Hi,

I ended up with a corrupted /var/lib/rpm/Packages after removing few old
kernels this morning.

rpm --verifydb --vv fails on this Packages file, and rpm -qa does not
display anything (it fails to decode the first package)

However the file still contains all the names since I can still install
remove or query packages.

Is there a way to rebuild this file (or clean it). rpm --rebuilddb does not
work.

Trouble here, rpm -qa locks the machine and it is used by update-menus
which runs in the background.
