Description of problem: During a "yum update", root had completed any dependency resolution, downloaded headers, asked if downloading 8.0M was OK (answered "y"), downloaded the 11 packages, and was doing (or completed) the "Running Transaction Test" step. Then a "Segmentation fault" was displayed and root got it's cmd. prompt displayed :( Any attempt to use yum (e.g., "yum list", "yum --version", "yum clean"...) failed starting with the 2 msg's: Loading "installonlyn" plugin rpmdb: Locker is not valid Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Unable to do "yum --version" How reproducible: I am assuming this would be reproducible if I could use yum again. Assuming rpmdb has a problem, I will try again if there is a special step to rebuild what yum requires. Steps to Reproduce: 1. yum update 2. y 3. yum --version Actual results: [root@localhost ~]# yum --version Loading "installonlyn" plugin rpmdb: Locker is not valid rpmdb: Unknown locker ID: 8a error: db4 error(22) from db->close: Invalid argument error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - Invalid argument (22) error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/yum", line 29, in ? yummain.main(sys.argv[1:]) File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 85, in main base.getOptionsConfig(args) File "/usr/share/yum-cli/cli.py", line 199, in getOptionsConfig errorlevel=opts.errorlevel) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 125, in doConfigSetup self.conf = config.readMainConfig(startupconf) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/config.py", line 597, in readMainConfig yumvars['releasever'] = _getsysver(startupconf.installroot, startupconf.distroverpkg) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/yum/config.py", line 656, in _getsysver idx = ts.dbMatch('provides', distroverpkg) TypeError: rpmdb open failed [root@localhost ~]# Expected results: Updated fedora core 6 Additional info: Here is the term. log of the initial "yum update" run: [root@localhost ~]# yum update Loading "installonlyn" plugin Setting up Update Process Setting up repositories Reading repository metadata in from local files Resolving Dependencies --> Populating transaction set with selected packages.
