To me this sounds like the rpm bug is cropping up.  If true, there is a 
bugzilla report with respect to rpm hanging.  The course of action then is 
to remove /var/lib/rpm/__db.* files then issue a "rpm --rebuilddb".  To 
verify that the preceeding work test it with your "rpm -qa sendmail" as
above.

this one is nonsensical.  The "bash -x" is only applicable for shell 
scripts.  rpm is a binary.
