Yes, I have tried that, there *seems* to be some corruption in the db3
package (doesn't seem to be there)
This is annoying as I did install it and rpm v4 you would think it would
make sure it is installed!
Anyway what I'm attempting to do is rebuild rpm and db3 from binaries.
Regards,
Scott

Not sure at all, since I never managed to successfully upgrade from
rpm v3 to v4, but one thing that needed to be done for the jump from
v2 (Yes, we have boxen that old) to v3, was the rpm database needed
rebuilding. It sounds like this is the case, but the new rpm even told
me it needed doing.
Just run something like:
rpm --rebuilddb
(specifying one or more verbose flags may help, too)
