Outside. The host system's RPMDB is broken (after rpm -r ... -Uvh ...). The 
chroot's RPMDB is intact, but the package I wanted to install is missing, 
not so surprisingly.  :-)

5.3.10 in both cases.

Sorry, wrong wording: The bdb version linked with the current rpm-5.3.10 
install is 5.1.25. The RPMDB was originally created using bdb 4.7.something, 
and after installing rpm-5.3.10 (with bdb-5.1.25), I immediateley ran 
dbconvert.sh.

I did as advised, and rpm -qavv outputs this:

Do you have any hint/idea why "rpm -r /my/chroot -Uvh /some/package.rpm" 
kills the RPMDB *outside* of the chroot? Did I miss anything here?

TIA!
