Description of problem:

I am seeing a rare errors when trying to run yum transactions
it looks something like this:
  Installing : rhevm-setup-plugin-ovirt-engine-common-3.4.2-0.1000.764.    7/32 
08:42:06 error: db3 error(12) from dbcursor->c_put: Cannot allocate memory
08:42:06 error: db3 error(12) from dbcursor->c_put: Cannot allocate memory
08:42:06 error: error(12) storing record /usr/share/ovirt-engine/setup/plugins/ovirt-engine-setup/ovirt-engine-common/config/ into Dirnames
08:42:06 error: db3 error(12) from dbcursor->c_put: Cannot allocate memory

and these rpms are not getting installed
this is somewhat similar to this:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=245389

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 923201 ***

I am also regularly experiencing this problem on our build server. I usually have to manually rebuild the rpmdb in order to recover from such situation, but still it's an annoyance. Unfortunately, I don't have access to bug 923201 and cannot see if it has been resolved or if there is a better solution for it.

Can someone provide some feedback here, or open access to the other bug?
