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. :-)
