smart-r735: StopIteration on x86_64

Hi there Gustavo,

 : 
 : It looks like your rpm database has changed even though the mtime 
 : has not since Smart last looked. Can you please try to do 
 : something like:
 : 
 :   touch /var/lib/rpm/Packages

It didn't seem to work after "touch /var/lib/rpm/Packages" [0].

 : if it still doesn't work, try to remove your cache with
 : 
 :   rm /var/lib/smart/cache
 : 
 : and please let me know.

I also tried this [1], to no avail.  I'd be happy to offer up some
other diagnostic information if you wish.  Just let me know what
that should be.

And, whatever am I to do in the meantime, if I need the package
called "thingy"?  :)

Thank you, Gustavo,

-Martin
