Redhat is also affected by this problem (the one solved by removing
/var/lib/rpm/__db* and doing rpm --rebuilddb). I have had to help people on LUG
lists who were running Redhat7.x with this.

Maybe urpmi should test for these files and warn the user or automatically rebuild?

When I do "rpm -qa", the program would output several package names and then it
would get stucked. 

I didn't build version with debugging information, though when I use "strace"
program to see what's happening I see that, when it gets stucked, it calls
select(0, NULL, NULL, NULL, {timeout}) and timeout keeps increasing up until it
reaches length of one second - then it keeps timing-out after one second for ever.

The only solution I found is system reboot :(
