Re: [CentOS] Yum loses memory when kernel is upgraded

Sounds like your RPM database was corrupted. If so, there may well be other problems lurking. I'd try:

rm /var/lib/rpm/__* rpm --rebuilddb yum update

Should not hurt, and may well help avoid other problems.

You're right, I may now have packages that yum does not "see" and thus cannot update.

I rebuilt the dbs as you suggested, but nothing seemed to change - there is nothing new for yum to update. We'll see...
