Yeah, this makes no sense. Hmm .... please send me the login details
(offlist) and I'll take a look.

In the meantime I'm working on a Perl script that checks the RPM
database and lists all RPMs that are listed as installed with different
version numbers.

If it finds such, it dumps out "rpm -e --justdb ..." lines with the only
the newest RPMs listed. That allows for a (manual) quick deletion of
these double entries.

Once that's done, one can run "yum update" again and it'll re-fetch the
RPMs for which the double entries were present. Just in case their
install didn't go all the way trough.

Should be useful. On one of my test boxes I managed to zap 144 double
entries with it.
