The rebuild, works around the problem.
There's also a fix in the current rawhide for the problem, but Red Hat are testing the new RPM release that contains the fix for a while before they release it.

Thanks for the info.
I had tried removing the entire directory structure, and building a brand new rpm database. But the same problem kept occuring.
Just tried doing a complete reboot (first time this year), and doing a rebuilddb - seems to be working ok for now.
