I have run into similar weird problems with rpm, sometimes just
rebuilding the rpm database fixed my problems.  Rpm --rebuilddb as root

RedHat 9, fresh install.
 
rpm -i perl-CGI-2.81-88.i386.rpm
 
Entered the command and nothing happened for 10 minutes and it seemed my
session had locked up, so I disconnected and reconnected.  The process
was orphaned, so I killed it.
 
Now, just running rpm -qa doesn't seem to work.  I entered the command
10 minutes ago and it's still sitting there with no apparent activity.
 
Any ideas on how to fix the problem?
 
Thanks,
 
-Ed
