No, this is too dangerous for rpmdrake. I think it -may- be added to urpmi, but even.. the presence of /var/lib/rpm/__* is normal, it just can indicate that the DB is locked by another program - there are even situations when the DB is not thrashed but the files are here (when a corrupted package was installed). -- Guillaume Cottenceau - http://people.mandrakesoft.com/~gc/
