A pointer to your binary package, please, so's I can try to reproduce the segfault. I suspect that your segfault may actually be due to other causes: Have you been using the Ximian installer? If so, then please send me a pointer to a tarball of your database cd /var/lib tar czvf /tmp/rpmdb.tar.gz rpm and I'll tell you what to do. Created attachment 19410 [details]
RSA ACE/Agent for Linux rpm
Okay I just attached the rpm in question. No I haven't used the ximian installer. The box doesn't have X even installed on it. It's a fresh RH 7.1 box with not much installed built using kickstart. I've worked around the bug by specificing the default attributes in the spec file (which I should have done before), but rpm shouldn't crash still :) rpm-4.0.3 does not segfault when installing/erasing your package. So when is 4.0.3 going to be included in RH 7.1 updates? |
