Running as root. Rebooting did not help either. I looked into the /var/lib/rpm dir and there are the following files: Basenames;Conflictnames;Dirnames;Filemd5s;Group;installtid;Name;Packages;Providename;Provideversion;Pubkeys;Requirename;Requireversion;Sha1header;Sigmd5;Triggername Is there supposed to be anything else?
