Sorry RedHat List.. I send two message by error I found the solution soon.. and want to share with RHL
Delete the old rpm database under /var/lib/rpm rm -rf __db* (that is 2 _'s) There are rpm database problems with both rpm packages installed in rh 9 and rh 8.0. Removing these databases will cause apt not to hang. That work for me... I rename the __db.001 _db.002 __db.003 to __db.001.bak .... and rpm came back to life! ;) Fryclau -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Fryclau Sent: Sunday, July 27, 2003 8:15 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: rpm --rebuilddb hang ..
