Hi, all. 

I screwed up, big time. I let a multi-RPM installation 
process go haywire (Labview, if y'all are curious), killed a process, 
and in so doing borked the RPM database as follows:

# rpm -q foo
dbiTagsInit: unrecognized tag name: "Pubkeys" ignored
rpmdb: Packages: unsupported hash version: 8
error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - Invalid argument (22)

I'd be much obliged for any info that woulr work in getting
this machine working again.

None of the tricks in http://www.rpm.org/hintskinks/repairdb/
seem to work:

# rpm --rebuilddb
dbiTagsInit: unrecognized tag name: "Pubkeys" ignored
rpmdb: Packages: unsupported hash version: 8
error: cannot open Packages index
#


# db_verify Packages
# rpm -q foo
dbiTagsInit: unrecognized tag name: "Pubkeys" ignored
rpmdb: Packages: unsupported hash version: 8
error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - Invalid argument (22)

# rpm --rebuilddb -vv
