Below is part of the command: "rpm -q -a |sort"

As you can see there are several RPMs which **seem** to be installed twice (2 
different versions). I tried rpm -rebuilddb but that didn't help. Obviously 
the packages are not really installed twice since many (or all) of the file 
names would be the same, but I would like to know what this means and how to 
fix it. I'm afraid to try "rpm -e [pkg-name]" because I assume both versions 
of pkg-name would be removed.

BTW, I did have a problem with RPM locking up yesterday, and I had to kill it 
and restart, so I assume ther's a connection.

BTW - there are probably more **double** packages. I didn't check the entire 
file.
