I posted an update notice the other day, but was probably missed inthe confusion subject = Fw: MDKA-2003:030 - Updated rpm packages fix database locking bug (or see below) Have you updated since the initial install? eric -------------------------------- Package name: rpm Advisory ID: MDKA-2003:030 Date: November 18th, 2003 Affected versions: 9.2 ___________________________________________________________________ ___ Problem Description: A bug was found in the way that rpm locks it's database in that it prevents update-menus from running properly and can cause the loss of KDE, GNOME, and other WM menus.
