backtrace

Got a similar exception while upgrading (attached). Rebooting into FC5 and
removing gnu.getopt produced a similar error when upgrading, now for
mozilla-devel (37:1.7.13-1.1.fc5.i386). Rebooting again and removing
mozilla-devel and then upgrading produced the same, but now for utempter
(0.5.5-7.2.1.i386). Then gave up and just installed directly reusing the fc5
partition which worked.
