I was bitten by this bug too. For now I downgraded to rpm-4.2-0.70. Because rpm was broken, I did the following. mkdir temp cd temp rpm2cpio ../rpm-4.2-0.70.i386.rpm | cpio --extract -d I copied the binaries over to the system, overwriting the binaries from rpm-4.2-0.71. What seemed to stop it from crashing was replacing the files in /usr/lib/. After doing the same thing for popt, I used: rpm -Uvh rpm*0.70*.i386.rpm popt*0.70.i386.rpm --oldpackage This ensures that I am running the "0.70" version and not some weird mix of "0.70" and "0.71".
