NAME

rpmdb - RPM Database Tool

SYNOPSIS

rpmdb { --initdb|--rebuilddb }

rpmdb { --verifydb }

rpmdb { --exportdb|--importdb }

DESCRIPTION

The general form of an rpmdb command is

rpmdb { --initdb|--rebuilddb } [ -v ] [ --dbpath DIRECTORY ] [ --root DIRECTORY ]

Use --initdb to create a new database if one doesn't already exist (existing database is not overwritten), use --rebuilddb to rebuild the database indices from the installed package headers.

--verifydb performs a low-level integrity check on the database.

--exportdb exports the database in header-list format, suitable for transporting to another host or database type.

--importdb imports a database from a header-list format as created by --exportdb .

SEE ALSO

popt (3), rpm (8), rpmkeys (8), rpmsign (8), rpm2cpio (8), rpmbuild (8), rpmspec (8)

rpmdb --help - as rpm (8) supports customizing the options via popt aliases it's impossible to guarantee that what's described in the manual matches what's available.
