Simple hacked up test to reproduce. I imagine this will also break mock
and anaconda installs with no db.

import os
import shutil
import tempfile
import yum
import yum.Errors

if __name__ == "__main__":
    rootpath = tempfile.mkdtemp(suffix="testroot")
    os.mkdir(rootpath + "/var")
    os.mkdir(rootpath + "/var/lib")
    os.mkdir(rootpath + "/var/lib/rpm")

    y = yum.YumBase()
    y.doConfigSetup(root=rootpath, init_plugins=False)
    y.doTsSetup()
    y.doRpmDBSetup()
    try:
        y.rpmdb.buildIndexes()
    except yum.Errors.PackageSackError, e:
        print e

    shutil.rmtree(rootpath)
