I've got the same version of rpm on mine however I didn't encounter the
same problem..... Possible corrupt binary on the rpm installer?
Why I'm thinking this might be the case is I've gotten non-sense error
messages like this in such a case. The system knew it had an error but
really didn't have a message it could give me so it just grabs the "
nearest " one. (A recent attempt to build Mozilla on a FreeBSD box with a
corrupt gcc compiler gave me the error "kernel not found unable to mount
root file system" even though I had been booted for two weeks already.)
