yum error rpmdb

Hi

I cannot update As I keep receving an error that goes like " rpmdb error #10 bad header --skipping"

This error just keeps repeating and cannot be stopped. Is there a way to repair the header, or I am unsure whatelse I would do.

Any Ideas.

Hello:
You could remove the db and rebuild.

On a side note I have found a repo of yum plugins Yum-Plugins . Cannot find however any docs on how to properly use them, has anyone got a link they post or any info.

I don't know how to use allowdowngrade , priorities or versionlock

Cheers
