Before you go through all that, do a few things: 1) ps -ax | grep rpm | grep -v grep Do any rpm processes show up? Do they have status D? If so, you might have a cron job hanging. 2) rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__* rpm --rebuilddb If neither of those two help, then I'm unsure what could be going on. It's working fine for all of my systems. Maybe it's time you and the other gentleman start posting hardware specs. Blue skies...
