[mythtv-users] vmlinuz and rpm db4 problems (FC1, ATrpms)

[Mike Jasper]

Hi,

I am running FC1 with ATrpms packages.  I have two problems, but the 
second is the most serious at the moment, since I can't do anything 
related to rpm or apt-get.  Thank you for any help!

1) I was fooling around with ALSA tonight and uninstalled the 
kernel-module-alsa package.  I tried reinstalling it (also the alsa-kmdl 
package), but got an error like this:

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
   kernel-module-alsa-2.4.22-1.2199.nptl: Depends: 
/boot/vmlinuz-2.4.22-1.2199.nptl but it is not installable

I have /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.22-1.2199.nptl_52.rhfc1.at.  I tried making a 
symlink to it named vmlinuz-2.4.22-1.2199.nptl, but that didn't help. 
What gives?  Even if I fix problem #2 below, I still have no ALSA.


2) I did an apt-get dist-upgrade tonight and now my rpm database seems 
to be hosed.  Tried finding a solution on Google but didn't come up with 
much.  Here's what I get why I try to do anything related to rpm:

# rpm -qa | grep kmdl
rpmdb: Berkeley DB library configured to support only DB_PRIVATE 
environments
error: db4 error(22) from dbenv->open: Invalid argument
error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - Invalid argument (22)
error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm


Here are the dist-upgrade results:
