[Bug 260571] Re: Poldek dies: Assertion '!i3_is_marked(ictx, pkg)'

[Jeff Johnson]

There are two different bugs here.

The 1st symptom had a rpmlib error message.

The 2nd symptom is an assert failure in poldek that exited, leading
to the stale lock cleanup in the next rpm invocation that looks like:
    Freeing read locks for locker 0x14f9: 7102/3069777696
    ...

AFAICT (I don't know much about poldek code), the assert is
intended to ensure the pre-conditions for the retry: i.e. that
a package being retried was not already installed.

One of the very first things to do is
   rpm --rebuilddb
to clean up side effects in the rpmdb store. Lots of problems
have a root cause that the data is inconsistent somehow.
