If -qa doesn't match with -q then the indexes are out of sync, ie the database
is indeed inconsistent then. That can happen with ndb, but AIUI it should also
detect that and fix itself. Except of course if it can't, ie you run queries as
an unprivileged user who cannot write to the rpmdb.
The sqlite backend is transactional so you're never supposed to see such a
state there, it's all handled transparently by sqlite. So if you have an
environment where rpm gets forcibly killed at random times a lot then that may
be something to try out. However, rpm is NOT suited well for such an
environment. At all. Rpm WILL leave orphan files around if such things happen,
and there's currently no attempt to try to track them.
