Thanks.

After installation need to remove syms and run rpm --rebuilddb and then
everything is back to normal.

I somehow managed to get mine working with a --rebuilddb after forcing the 
install with nodeps. :) seems ok now.

Thanks.

To correct this, do the following:

# ln -s /usr/lib/rpm @RPMCONFIGDIR@
# ln -s /usr/lib/rpm @SYSCONFIGDIR@

and then launch rpm/urpmi from the directory where you just created
the symlinks. You should be able to upgrade rpm to the 23mdk release
that corrects this problem.
