I have 3 FC2 machines and recently did an apt-get update on them. All seemed to go well. Today I tried to do another update and I now get the following update message on all three machines. One is a Dell server, and the other two are workstations. rpmdb: Program version 4.3 doesn't match environment version error: db4 error(-30974) from dbenv->open: DB_VERSION_MISMATCH: Database environment version mismatch error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - (-30974) error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm E: could not open RPM database This looks really bad. Is it as bad as it looks and is there a way to recover from this without having to reinstall the whole system? Charles Layno Greensboro, NC
