rpm -qa runs fine to completion as user (here's a
snippet from the successful run's strace):
write(1, "cups-drivers-1.1-15mdk\n", 23) = 23
pread(3,
"\0\0\0\0\1\0\0\0\201\17\0\0\0\0\0\0\200\17\0\0\1\0\346"...,
4096, 16257024) = 4096
pread(3,
"\0\0\0\0\1\0\0\0\200\17\0\0\201\17\0\0\177\17\0\0\1\0\346"...,
4096, 16252928) = 4096
but as root it hangs after the first pread call you
see there, strace shows:
write(1, "cups-drivers-1.1-15mdk\n",
23cups-drivers-1.1-15mdk
) = 23
pread(3,
"\0\0\0\0\1\0\0\0\201\17\0\0\0\0\0\0\200\17\0\0\1\0\346"...,
4096, 16257024) = 4096
select(0, NULL, NULL, NULL, {0, 1000}) = 0 (Timeout)

select(0, NULL, NULL, NULL, {0, 4000}) = 0 (Timeout)

select(0, NULL, NULL, NULL, {1, 0}) = 0 (Timeout)
That last line just repeats forever (slowly).
