Hmm, Rawhide has rpm 4.2.1-0.30, and the bug persists
Can you describe your usual RPM activities?
Do you interrupt rpm often? Interrupting rpm is one major source of being confronted with stale lock files.
I haven't seen an rpm lockup for a *very* long time. Neither with Shrike nor with Severn. And I have erased, installed and queried hundreds to thousands of packages [in my build environment]. On Red Hat Linux 8.0 it's rpm 4.1.1-1.8x from Fedora "Patches" that works for me:
