[Halld-offline] rcdb v0.02 crashes at invocation

[Mark Ito]

Dmitry has a fix to the "rcdb" command in progress and it should appear 
on the master branch presently.

Word on the street says that a functional version of "rcdb" is important 
for folks using HDPM. It appears that HDPM uses the command as some sort 
of internal validation of the RCDB build. So another way to do a quick 
fix would be to defeat the "rcdb" check in HDPM. I'm a little nervous 
about trying to do that; there may be lots of things for me to learn 
before releasing even a quick fix...
