vim-common and glibc-common

[Jim Cornette]

I have a fully updated system now to rawhide except for vim-common 
cannot be removed or installed onto the system.
glibc-common gives errors which cause the /var/lib/rpm/__db* files to 
lock the system vim-common causes a segmentation fault:

The system seems to be running alright. The process to update and remove 
certain programs is inhibited though.

but computer language design is just like a stroll in the park.
