Looks like corrupted rpm database... weird indeed.

WAIT! WAIT! This will destroy evidence and solve only the sympthom...

1. Backup your rpm database (maybe you'll want to investigate further)
   cd /var/lib/rpm; tar czf /tmp/mybadrpm.tar .

2. Rebuild it:
   rpm --rebuilddb

3. Than check all your packages (maybe other things miss as well and you
   haven't noticed yet:
   rpm -Va > /tmp/rpm_va.txt
   This will take quite a while (and is a very good test of your hard disk BTW)

Bye,
