rpmdb: Program version 4.3 doesn't match environment version
error: db4 error(-30974) from dbenv->open: DB_VERSION_MISMATCH: Database
environment version mismatch
error: cannot open Packages index using db3 -  (-30974)
error: cannot open Packages database in /scratch/livecd-build_no7/system/var/lib/rpm
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/share/kadischi/kadischi.py", line 216, in ?
    kernel_version = get_kernel_version (sysdir)
  File "/usr/local/share/kadischi/lib/functions.py", line 75, in get_kernel_version
    for mi in ts.dbMatch ('name', 'kernel-xen0'):
TypeError: rpmdb open failed

How reproducible:
every time

I think this has to do with using different rpm versions, perhaps in and out of
a chroot.

This should fix it:

I do not have the hardware to test this error, for 64 bit machines.
Can you explain a bit more about your build environment for Kadischi and what
environment it is running in, along with the arch of the repository you are using?

Does the patch you provided appear to solve the problem for sure?
