Comment 1 Michael K. Johnson 1999-07-13 14:28:59 EDT

This is (I presume) caused by an rpm bug that affected tetex, and is
fixed by the rpm packages at
http://www.redhat.com/corp/support/errata/rh60-errata-general.html#rpm

You can fix it even without reinstalling rpm by reinstalling the
tetex packages, but we strongly suggest upgrading rpm at the same
time.
