I think /usr/lib64/python2.3/site-packages/rpm may be a leftover from an
upgraded RPM package, since downgraded again. See if any package owns it:
$ rpm -qf /usr/lib64/python2.3/site-packages/rpm
If no package owns it, try renaming it:
# cd /usr/lib64/python2.3/site-packages
# mv rpm rpm.rpm441
See if that helps. If rpm is subsequently broken, rename the directory
back again.
Paul.
