I have a coredump and a valgrind report, all of them sent to suse
maintainers (Bugzillla: 225630 & 225631).
I intend to restore the package database from backup and rerun the
- --rebuilddb, but I'll wait for comments from Novell before destroying
the faulty status quo of the database - but I wont wait for ever, of
course.
I don't think zmd has to do with rpm segfaulting - that's a no-no for any
program - but I may try another day.
