Hi,
When I try and upgrade a particular package,
shadow-utils-4.0.3-56.x86_64, rpm starts to chew at the machine
eventually exhausting my RAM and swap. Has anyone else seen such a
problem? Details are:
[root@localhost packages]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Fedora Core release 3 (Heidelberg)
[root@localhost packages]#
[root@localhost packages]# rpm -Uvh --test -vv shadow-utils-4.0.3-56.x86_64.rpm
D: ============== shadow-utils-4.0.3-56.x86_64.rpm
D: Expected size: 588332 = lead(96)+sigs(344)+pad(0)+data(587892)
D: Actual size: 588332

D: read h# 14 Header V3 DSA signature: OK, key ID 4f2a6fd2
and that's pretty much where it sits until I kill the process.
Any help would be appreciated,
Mark
