Description of problem: 
I updated to rpm-4.1.1-0.2.8x and now my ~/.xession-erros is filling up with errors like: 
 
rpmdb: /var/lib/rpm/Packages: unsupported hash version: 8 
rpmdb: /var/lib/rpm/Packages: unsupported hash version: 8 
rpmdb: /var/lib/rpm/Packages: unsupported hash version: 8 
ain't there yet 
ain't there yet 
ain't there yet 
 
I then removed the applet from my taskbar and the message have stopped 
 
I think this is caused by the upgrade of rpm, although the bug could in fact be somewhere 
else, but I trust Jeff will know which direction to push this. 
 
My guess is that python is using librpmdb404 and it doesn't like the new rpm db's created by 
rpm-4.1.1
