Errr...well why dont you fix the rpm db instead? Sounds to me like using --nodeps caused the problem to begin with, if I read yer bugreport correctly. When is --nodeps every really a good solution that doesn't lead to some sort of problem? I avoid using --nodeps and --force, as a matter of principle, and I haven't actually seen this segfault problem. Maybe you can recover by the db_verify/db_dump/db_load procedure http://www.rpm.org/hintskinks/repairdb/ -jef"Hi Ho Hi Ho off to get coffee i go"spaleta
