Try doing
    rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db*
Comment 3 Paul Nasrat 2007-03-13 11:07:45 UTC 
Is this still occuring.
Comment 4 Panu Matilainen 2007-08-09 19:46:18 UTC 
Most likely yet another kernel mmap() bug victim of the time. If reproducable
after updating to kernel 2.6.19-1.2895 or later then reinvestigation is needed.
