Re: For those who have installed 9i on RedHat EL4

I don't know, but he has established now that he's seeing the problem described here:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=101603

If he has LD_ASSUME_KERNEL set to 2.4.19, then installing any RPM will corrupt the RPM database. If he unsets it, the install works ok (after recreating the database, of course).

According to the bug comments RH thought they had fixed this for RHEL4, but apparently not.
