RPMDB Problem
When doing yum operations I get this message at the end of whatever yum was doing:
** Found 1 pre-existing rpmdb problem(s), ‘yum check’ output follows:
brscan4-0.4.8-1.x86_64 is a duplicate with brscan4-0.4.3-1.x86_64
It is true, if I do “rpm -qa | grep brscan” it shows two of them.
what’s the best/proper way to deal with this?
-remove both, reinstall one?
-remove one? which one? I don’t see a feature in rpm (or yum) for removing a single one of duplicate packages. How?
Thanks in advance!

One thought on - RPMDB Problem
i had to reinstall last night and early this mornin i got a message that there was 2 yums runniong around and one was locked up . i waited about 15 minutes and no problem but for some reason openvpn has vanished and can’t be found anywhere even though i can look right at it .. I’m not sure what bugs are running wild in there because of friday the 13th . but there are a few things really going sideways.. i was burning 31g in one folder that shouldn’t have used more than 3 dogged my system down almost to a stop, could only di 1 thing at a time . i have a quad core prossor its fast but the memory being bottled up kills it . almost acted like a meltdown attack but i have that protected .. good luck guys i just had to reinstall my whole system. charlie (nightcrawler)
