Can you post install.log from the affected system?
This error may be to blame: Upgrading libgcj - 4.1.2-39.el5.ia64 error: unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/lib/gcj-4.1.2: cpio: rename /usr/bin/gij, /usr/bin/gcj-dbtool and /usr/lib/libgij.so.7rh all belong to the libgcj package. If cpio installs /usr/bin/gij and /usr/bin/gcj-dbtool then exits-on-error before installing /usr/lib/libgcj.so.7rh, that would explain subsequent error messages like: gij: error while loading shared libraries: libgij.so.7rh: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory and /usr/bin/gcj-dbtool: error while loading shared libraries: libgcj.so.7rh: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory when %post sections of later-installed packages invoke these commands.
