This is true for 10.2.
----------------------------
1)  Run rczmd stop
2)  Go to file /var/lib/zmd and delete zmd.db (You may feel more comfortable
renaming it)
3)  Run rczmd start (If you then go back to /var/lib/zmd, you'll see that it
has re-created zmd.db but it will likely be much smaller than the one you
renamed)
4)  That clears zmd, but there may be updates out there that zen will no
longer notify you of, so run YAsT Online-Update to get any pending updates.

At this point, everything should be back in sync and zen should work again
the next time any new updates become available.
