Thanks.  My search skills need polishing - I didn't find that one.

I removed the lock files, then tested for rpm - and it seems that I
must have destroyed that while trying to sort out the db problem.
Requesting a re-install brought up the need for 131 packages!  Towards
the end, that failed, saying that certain packages were required.  I
tried to install those, but seem to be stumbling on
sound-scripts-0.62-1.mga2.noarch.rpm which it says is missing.

Attempting to install sound-scripts separately asks whether I want to
use systemd-sysvinit or sysvinit-legacy.  I've tried both, but both
fail due to missing sound-scripts.
