Following some inadvertent replacement of various RPM's and then having
to back them out again, my system was somewhat damaged.

I uninstalled and then reinstalled yum. RPM claims that yum is good to go:

# rpm -V yum
..?......   /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/repomd/__init__.py
# yum list available
Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "/usr/bin/yum", line 6, in ?
   import yummain
 File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 23, in ?
   import yum
 File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/yum/__init__.py", line 20, in ?
   import rpm
 File "/usr/lib64/python2.3/site-packages/rpm/__init__.py", line 7, in ?
ImportError: No module named _rpm

But apparently yum is having self-estime issues.

Any ideas?


This is FC3, right?

Try reinstalling rpm-python and see if that helps.

Paul.


Yes, FC3.  Tried the suggestion: No joy.

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.
