Hey gang,
Just did a "yum -y update" a few hours ago on a machine with FC4.
After that, whenever I type in yun (anything), I get:
yum -y update
There was a problem importing one of the Python modules
required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/rpm/_rpmmodule.so: undefined symbol:
matchpathcon_init
Please install a package which provides this module, or
verify that the module is installed correctly.
Which versions of "rpm", "rpm-python", and "libselinux" do you have?
My last FC4 box has:
$ rpm -q libselinux rpm rpm-python
libselinux-1.23.11-1.1
rpm-4.4.1-23
rpm-python-4.4.1-23
Paul.
Hi Paul,
That is exactly what I have (sorry I didn't provide that when I posted).
I'm not sure what to make of this.
Does "strings /lib/libselinux.so.1 | grep matchpath" produce this output?
matchpathcon_init
set_matchpathcon_printf
set_matchpathcon_invalidcon
set_matchpathcon_flags
matchpathcon_filespec_eval
matchpathcon_filespec_destroy
matchpathcon_checkmatches
matchpathcon_filespec_add
matchpathcon_index
matchpathcon
matchpathcon_filespec_eval
matchpathcon_filespec_add
Also, on one of my machines, rpm-build won't update:
Updating:
rpm-build i386 4.4.1-23 updates-released 515

I had to do this to get RPM and Yum to work:
rm /var/lib/rpm/__*
rpm --rebuilddb
Looks like my db files got corrupted. D'oh!
That fixed RPM and Yum for me.
