                     Mandrake Linux Update Advisory
 _______________________________________________________________________

 Package name:           rpm
 Advisory ID:            MDKA-2003:030-1
 Date:                   December 4th, 2003
 Original Advisory Date: November 18th, 2003
 Affected versions:	 9.2
 ______________________________________________________________________

 Problem Description:

 A bug was found in the way that rpm locks it's database in that it
 prevents update-menus from running properly and can cause the loss of
 KDE, GNOME, and other WM menus.
 
 This package provides a better locking mechanism that should prevent
 this improper behaviour.
  
Update:

 The previous package did not properly clean up the lock file when
 issuing a --rebuilddb.  This has been corrected by these packages
