sorry I suspect new mageia's 32 bits (and perhaps others distrib based on kernels3) to be uncompatible with the Intel chipset X58. hello seems your database rpm is corrupted, does it work with: rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db* rpm --rebuilddb (In reply to Manuel Hiebel from comment #2) > hello seems your database rpm is corrupted, > > does it work with: > > rm -f /var/lib/rpm/__db* > rpm --rebuilddb no [root@localhost ~]# rm -vf /var/lib/rpm/__db* « /var/lib/rpm/__db.001 » supprimé « /var/lib/rpm/__db.002 » supprimé « /var/lib/rpm/__db.003 » supprimé [root@localhost ~]# rpm --rebuilddb (...and nothing happens) ^C[root@localhost ~] That means rpm --rebuilddb succeeded.

As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Mageia please feel free to click on "Version" change it against that version of Mageia and reopen this bug. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. -- The Mageia Bugsquad Status:
