OK, I finally rebooted the machine, and rpm stuff works correctly (without
rebuilding the DB!).
My best guess is that something was blocking the database, and this "something"
may be urpmi itself, because I was installing and deinstalling mysql several
times using urpmi before this happpened. I afraid this will remain a mistery. :-(

When I do "rpm -qa", the program would output several package names and then it
would get stucked.
I didn't build version with debugging information, though when I use "strace"
program to see what's happening I see that, when it gets stucked, it calls
select(0, NULL, NULL, NULL, {timeout}) and timeout keeps increasing up until it
reaches length of one second - then it keeps timing-out after one second for ever.
The only solution I found is system reboot :(
