I would use the same process (rpm2cpio from another system) to at least get the rpm, yum, etc. binaries back in place. Then once those are working you can use rpm/yum/etc to repair the packages and get the RPM DB back in sync.

I believe RPM, YUM and SQLITE are all uninstalled from the system.  How do I

Use rpm2tgz to unpack the sqlite RPM on another system, then unpack
the resulting tarball on your affected system. This will drop the
sqlite binaries into place, should at least get RPM working again.

All,

I have been working on an issue with SQLite versions and uninstalled
SQLite. This in turn took out YUM and RPM. How can I get at least the
RPM back so I can install the rest of the stuff back?

Thanks,
