Have a look in /var/lib/rpm and see if there are any __db* files.
Delete these and see if that fixes things. Maybe y
I have run into similar weird problems with rpm, sometimes just

There's one more thing you should look at when examining an RPM to see what
it's going to install on your system: the install scripts.
rpm -q --scripts somerpm.arch.rpm
should let you see what changes the rpm will make besides just installing new
files.

Hrmm,

Yes! This is what I need to do, thanks! The only trouble is when
I try:

I get a 'broken pipe' error:(
