I can't say that I've ever had yum screw the RPM database up, but I have
had yumex get itself into a tangle (the RPM database was fine, but it
took some effort to knock yumex out of its stupidity before I could
carry on doing anything related to RPM), but I have had that
yum-updatesd thing that runs after the initial install of FC6 screw up
RPM royally.
I'm not sure whether I'd class that as a RPM fault (it shouldn't screw
up, no matter what's using it), a YUM fault (if it's involved with yumex
or yum-updatesd), or just down to those extra applications in
themselves.
