Hello, what exactly is wrong? If when you try to do anything from a query, install, upgrade, or remove and rpm just indefinitely stalls, I can help. What you need to do is the following as root: Allright, see the __db.00X files? Thats two underscores. If you dont see them, just move right on to an "rpm --rebuilddb" command [schotty@leinenkugel schotty]$ cd /var/lib/rpm [schotty@leinenkugel rpm]$ ls Basenames __db.003 Installtid Provideversion Sha1header Conflictname Dirnames Name Pubkeys Sigmd5 __db.001 Filemd5s Packages Requirename Triggername __db.002 Group Providename Requireversion [schotty@leinenkugel rpm]$ sudo rm __db* [schotty@leinenkugel rpm]$ sudo rpm --rebuilddb HTH -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
