Actually, I have only "viewed" RPMs with it -- I never installed any packages with it. Anyway, the following is the output for the same command sequence in your email to the RPM list: $ rpm --version RPM version 4.0.2 $ rpm -qa $ rpm -qa $ rpm -q less error: cannot open Name index using db3 - No such file or directory (2) package less is not installed $ rpm -q -i less error: cannot open Name index using db3 - No such file or directory (2) package less is not installed $ rpm -q --info less error: cannot open Name index using db3 - No such file or directory (2) package less is not installed Hence, my port seems to handle -qa and -qi or not having anything installed is masking problems.
