From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows 98) After upgrading to rpm 4.0.2-6x kpackage no longer works. Clicking on it appears to do nothing. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. upgrade to rpm 4.0.2-6x 2. start kde 3. click on kpackage or click on an rpm file in the viewer Actual Results: nothing Expected Results: should have opened kpackage either showing what is installed, or showing the rpm selected This seems consistent across a few machines. Also, gnorpm no longer seems to work.
When logging out of X, my console has the following text on it, after the normal X startup messages: "kpackage: error in loading shared libraries: /usr/lib/librpmbuild.so.0: undefined symbol: rpmGlobalMacroContext"
Rebuilding kpackage will fix your problem. The more general fix, getting a solid ABI into rpmlib so that an upgrade of rpm doesn't break existing executables is underway, but is gonna take a while to deploy to Red Hat 6x platforms.
