it not only didn't fix the problem, now i can't use rpmdrake for
anything. it complains about bad packages. and i see a lot of
these being printed:
unable to read depslist file [/var/lib/urpmi/depslist.ordered]
no package named perl-TimeDate
unable to access list file of "CD 1 Installation CD (x86) (cdrom1)",
medium ignored
unable to access list file of "CD 2 2nd Installation CD (x86) (cdrom2)",
medium
ignored
... so, how do i get the db recreated? it never seems to want to
read the info from the two cds :(
