This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated in the current release, Red Hat is unfortunately unable to address this request at this time. Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to propose this request, if appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. If you would like it considered as an exception in the current release, please ask your support representative.
Are these errors from livecd-creator? Or after booting the image? We are already calling _cleanupRpmdbLocks at the end of ayum.runInstall() so there should not be any of these files on the target image. I checked a F15 minimal iso I just created and /var/lib/rpm/ doesn't have any __db* files in it.
We can't reproduce this problem, closing it out.
