[Mageia-dev] Fatal errors with rpm

[Robert Fox]

Since the last few updates, I am experiencing erratic RPM db errors (on
more than one machine):

error: rpmdb: Thread/process 3912/139787959727872 failed: Thread died in
Berkeley DB library
error: db4 error(-30974) from dbenv->failchk: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal
error, run database recovery
error: cannot open Packages index using db4 -  (-30974)
error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm

I've had to delete and rebuild the rpm database several times now:

rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db*
rpm --rebuilddb 

Anyone else seeing this??

Thx,
R.Fox
