you have to rebuild your database.
This is a common error:

Subject: RPM errors

I have a ProLiant DL380 G4 system which is running Red Hat Enterprise
Linux AS release 3 (Taroon Update 4).
The kernel is Linux 2.4.21-27.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Dec 1 21:59:02 EST 2004
i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux.

I am using rpm -qa command to check if sendmail is installed on my
system but I get the following errors:-

# rpm -qa | grep -i sendmail
error: rpmdbNextIterator: skipping h#     678 blob size(3740): BAD, 8 +
16 * il(71) + dl(11024)
sendmail-8.12.11-4.RHEL3.1
error: rpmdbNextIterator: skipping h#     675 blob size(3740): BAD, 8 +
16 * il(70) + dl(7192)
error: rpmdbNextIterator: skipping h#     677 blob size(3740): BAD, 8 +
16 * il(-1621093094) + dl(-2095968420)
error: rpmdbNextIterator: skipping h#     676 blob size(3740): BAD, 8 +
16 * il(1668620348) + dl(1835627361)


I have not see any of these types of errors before. Can anyone help me
why I am getting these errors and how I can fix these errors?
