Re: Problems with RPMs

Hi Bob,

I did what you indicated.

I've got the following in the last step:

# rpm --rebuilddb

error: db4 error(16) from dbenv->remove: Dispositivo o recurso ocupado

(TRANSLATION NOTE: Dispositivo o recurso ocupado -> Device or resource busy)

Anyhow it works now.
Thanks a lot! You are the best! (yes, I'm a little bit euphoric :-)

Alvaro
