[ILUG] RPM Problems

[ILUG] RPM Problems

Hi All,
I was trying to remove my mysql package from my system yesterday.  I ran
the necessary command rpm -e -p <package name>

This ran overnight, but did not comeplete (with no output).

So...This morning I killed the rpm process, and am now tring to re-build
the rpm database.

Command like 
rpm --verbose --initdb or
rpm --verbose --rebuilddb are producing no output and appear to be doing
nothing.

Is this correct ?  Any pointers?
TIA
Dermot
