While trying to:
rpm -i tetex-fonts-2.0.2-8.i386.rpm
I got the following error message:
rpmdb: page 1647: illegal page type or format
rpmdb: PANIC: Invalid argument
rpmdb: /var/lib/rpm/Packages: pgin failed for page 1647
rpmdb: fatal region error detected; run recovery

The problem is not related to the tetex-fonts package. Something else has
corrupted your RPM database. Whenever I see spontaneous data corruption,
I'd recommend to check your RAM chips first with memtest86.
