[issue209] smart says '<package>' matches multiple installed packages but that is not true

[Jon at Labix Tracker]

Jon <jnelson-smartpm at jamponi.net> added the comment:

I think that is extremely unlikely.
rpm and rpmlib both believe that there is but one version of smart
installed.

However, in the interests of moving forward, I rebuild the RPM db and
the results have not changed.

The following should provide for some useful discussion:

frank:~ # rpmdb --rebuilddb
frank:~ # rpm -qa | grep -i smart
smart-0.49.1-10.guru.suse102
smart-ksmarttray-0.49.1-10.guru.suse102
smart-gui-0.49.1-10.guru.suse102
smartmontools-5.36.cvs20061025-8
frank:~ # smart reinstall smart

Installing packages (1):
  smart-0.49.1-10.guru.suse102 at i686

2.6MB of package files are needed. 7.9MB will be used.

Confirm changes? (Y/n):

frank:~ # smart --shell
Smart Package Manager 0.50rc1 - Shell Mode
