As a note of interest, RPM itself is backed by a database, db3. Prior to
version 4.x, it was backed by db1. Upgrading between the versions of RPM is
simply -- installing db3 and dependenies, upgrade RPM, and run 'rpm
--rebuilddb' -- which works most of the time, but there are pathological
cases.....

You now are running db3 instead of db1, if you didn't get bit by a
pathological case. :-)
