Description of problem:
I'm having problems with rpm seg-falting when trying to get information
from the
database. It appears to be a bad entery in there. One of them is a
bind-utils
rpm from the 6.2 updates. Anything that does anything with that rpm (at
least)
core dumps. This includes all -ql -qi -F -U -i -e that do anything with
that
rpm. The rpm version is 4.0.2.


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. use my rpm database at above url
2. do a rpm -qa
3. repeat with any other option that lists the rpms in the db
	

Actual Results:  partial list of rpms
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

Expected Results:  complete list of rpms

Additional info:

I copied a older version from another system (Version 3.0). It core dumps
some
of the time but not always. Some interesting outputs are:

# ./rpm -ql bind-utils
(contains no files)
#
# ./rpm -qa | grep null
(null)-(null)-(null)
(null)-(null)-(null)
#

It also segfaults on -ev as well.

I rebuilt the rpm database with rpm --rebuilddb which core dumped and
didn't
seem to change anything.

I tried to compile both 4.0.2 and 3.0.4 from the source rpms so I could run
a
debugger on one, but neither of them would even compile on my 6.2 system.
4.0.2
couldn't find "no" as a command and 3.0.4 had a linker error.
