I have a problem regarding RPM management on a production machine.

Indeed we see with the rpm -qa command all the RPMs installed on the machine but some do not appear but the binaries continue to function such as sudo or rsync

I have the impression that the rpm database is heavily corrupted but despite a rebuild and an updapkg the situation remains the same.

The command below doesn't work either

/opt/freeware/rpm40/bin/rpmdb --rebuilddb --rcfile=/opt/freeware/lib/rpm40/rpmrc

exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program /opt/freeware/rpm40/bin/rpmdb because of the following errors:

Openssl was installed but it was removed with the rpm -e command

Despite deleting the rpms I have the impression that the lib and bin files still remain

/opt/freeware/lib#ls -l libss*
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     system      2751649 Dec 15 2022  libssh2.a
-rwxr-xr-x    1 root     system      1208741 Aug 03 2004  libssl.a
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     system           26 Mar 07 09:18 libssl3.a -> /usr/opt/rpm/lib/libssl3.a
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     system           27 Mar 07 09:18 libssl3.so -> /usr/opt/rpm/lib/libssl3.so

/opt/freeware/bin#ls -l | grep open
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     system           25 Mar 07 09:18 ssleay -> /opt/freeware/bin/openssl

Is deleting these files necessary?

Or should I reinstall the rpm and try removing it again?
