I recently upgraded to RH 5.1.  I tried running rpm for the first time
since the upgrade and got this:

	1011 ~:$ rpm -U knews*
	failed to open //var/lib/rpm/packages.rpm

	error: cannot open //var/lib/rpm/packages.rpm

Notice the // in the path.  /var/lib/rpm/packages.rpm *does* exist.

What's up?

Thanks for your attention.
