Yesterday, I ran into problems after trying to upgrade my 4.0.2 rpm to 4.0.3. I could do things like "rpm -qi <some rpm name>" or "rpm -qa |grep <some word>" but if I tried to remove or install any rpm, it would segfault. This was a big problem - making it impossible to simply go back to the previous rpm via rpm. I downloaded the source tarball for rpm-4.0.2 and built and installed it. Now it works as it should BUT I have lost all my rpm database entries. Running "rpm --rebuilddb" doesn't do anything. Is there no way to regain my rpm database? I REALLY need to remove some things as I am running out of space on my harddrive.
