Can you run: stat /var/lib/rpm/Packages tar -cvf rpmdb-cache1.tar /var/cache/yum/i386/12/installed sudo rm /var/cache/yum/i386/12/installed/version sudo yum upgrade tar -cvf rpmdb-cache2.tar /var/cache/yum/i386/12/installed ...and upload both tarfiles and the output from the stat? If the yum upgrade doesn't work, then also let us know but "yum clean rpmdb" will make it work.

So packages is: Modify: 2010-05-19 05:04:34.000000000 -0700 ..and installed/version was: Modify: 2010-05-19 08:04:58.000000000 -0400 ...and the difference is that: 1. dhclient/dhcp updated release/checksum. 2. google-chrome-beta updated release/checksum. 3. groff/groff-perl updated release/checksum. 4. guake updated release/checksum. 5. initscripts updated release/checksum. 6. kmod-nvidia-2.6.32.11-99.fc12.i686 was removed (but the rpmdb version package count stays the same). 7. krb5-devel/krb5-libs/krb5-workstation updated release/checksum. 8. logwatch updated release/checksum. 9. ppp updated release/checksum. 10. stunnel updated release/checksum. 11. system-setup-keyboard updated release/checksum. 12. tar updated release/checksum. 13. yp-tools/ypbind updated release/checksum. ...so removing the things in the update above ... that leaves dhclient/dhcp and kmod as the only changes. I notice you have the kmod and kernel plugins from fc10 ... I wonder if they are doing something.
Looking in yumdb-package-checksums I see you have "akmods" installed, looking through what that does this is very likely what is causing the problem. The defensive fixes we've put in upstream yum should fix it ... but it might be better to keep the rpm locked or something.

I'm getting this error on Fedora 13, no third-party repository packages involved at all. The only "strange" thing I did was: yum --enablerepo=rawhide install kernel < ... later ...> rpm -e <kernel-version-from-rawhide> Can you add information here about what would be useful for debugging what is going on here, or how to recover from this problem?
Moving the contents of /var/cache/yum/ aside worked around the problem.
I managed to accidentally duplicate this problem by rsync'ing /var/cache/yum from one installation of F12 to another. My guess is the RPM database was copied in addition to the 'packages' subfolders. Moving the rsync'd copy away and rebuilding the cache fixed the issue. whoops. carry on..

This message is a reminder that Fedora 12 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 12. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '12'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 12's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 12 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 12 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-12-02. Fedora 12 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
