Yeah, I sure did. Something bad happened. I'm not sure if it's related,
but somehow netscape completely forgot all of it's preferences too.

I solved it by: (from my bash history)

- remove the rpm-python and rpm-devel packages (may have required --force)
- download rpm* from updates
- download up2date-* from updates
- download python-popt*
- rpm -Uvh rpm-4.0.4-7x.i386.rpm popt-1.6.4-7x.i386.rpm --nodeps
- rpm -e up2date-gnome
- rpm -Uvh up2date-2.7.46-7.x.2.i386.rpm
- rpm -qf /usr/lib/python1.5/site-packages/poptmodule.so
- rpm -Uvh python-popt-0.8.7-7.x.2.i386.rpm
- rpm -Uvh up2date-gnome-2.7.46-7.x.2.i386.rpm

This fixed it, and there's probably a better/faster way, but it was only a
junk box and I didn't care (I did backup the original RPM db, however).
