I’ve got three systems running on this machine. 11.2 with KDE4.3, 11.2 with
KDE4.4, and 11.3 M2. The first has been giving me all sorts of strife for a
couple of days when updating but nothing at all from the other two - touch
wood.
The errors begin thusly:
Subprocess failed. Error: RPM failed: rpmdb: page 846: illegal page type or
format
rpmdb: PANIC: Invalid argument
rpmdb: /var/lib/rpm/Basenames: pgin failed for page 846
error: db4 error(-30977) from dbcursor->c_get: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error,
run database recovery
error: error(-30977) getting “nb-NO.jar” records from Basenames index
So am I picking up UK mirrors for one system but not the other two? Or do I
have a different problem?

I replaced UK mirrors with default and it was OK
But if your error persists i would wipe all the repos away and add them back, see what happens
What you seem to have is a corrupted rpm database.
rpmdb --rebuilddb
You should start a thread for this, if this solution does not work.
I prefer Lapsang and no cream, I’m dairy free.
My wife and daughter are lactose intolerant, so we have almond milk. But I do enjoy the nice rich cream for tea. I used to put like 6 teaspoons of sugar in my cup of tea, back when I was 12. >:)rotfl!

Thanks, that did the trick. I’ve used that before but have forgotten the
command. I’ve put a note in a safe place for next time. Perhaps I did that
last time and forgot which safe place I’d put it in.
