cannot open package index using db3- No such file or directory(2)

-->  The rpm database cannot be opened in db3 format. If you ahve just
upgraded the rpm package you need to convert your database to db3
format using "rpm --rebuilddb" as root.

When I ran the rpm --rebuilddb command as root I got this error:
cannot get shared lock on /var/lib/rpm/Packages

When I tried a few minutes later, the rpm --rebuilddb command worked.
I then tried the rpm -q --redhatprovides qt1x-GL command again and the
errors came back as the last time I typed it (cannot open package...
and -->  The rpm database...).  Any thoughts as to why this is
happening, and/or a different method to find out where dependency
files are?

TIA, 

Ari
