I did install RH7.  The only updates I had done, before today, was bind-8.2.3-1.i386.rpm, bind-utils-8.2.3-1.i386.rpm, pam-0.72-37.i386.rpm.  I don't remember that anything complained, tho.  (Like a newer version exists, etc.)

I'm not sure how it happened, but it sounds like you're saying I *should* be at rpm-4.0-4... but according to the -qi option, I'm not.

So, how do I get back to rpm-4?

We shipped rpm-4.0-4. You didn't install Red Hat Linux 7, unless you
installed this one manually afterwards.
