Description of problem:

As the subject says, when I try to upgrade to glibc-common-2.3.1-26 (from -25),
rpm segfaults even before finishing dependency checks:

Comment 4 Nils Philippsen 2003-01-02 10:25:33 UTC 
Same thing with XFree86-devel-4.2.99.3-20021230.0.i386.rpm (from
XFree86-devel-4.2.99.2-0.20021217.0)
Comment 5 Nils Philippsen 2003-01-02 12:57:29 UTC 
This seems to have been introduced with release 0.45:

[root@cognac 8.0.1]# rpm -q rpm
rpm-4.2-0.45
