Hi All, While working with package management,
installing/uninstalling various RPMs, I came up with a question regarding the RPM Database where
package-related information is being stored. The default location of the system’s RPM_DB is at
/var/lib/rpm. I can then create a second (private) RPM_DB (e.g. /var/lib/my_rpm) with the ‘rpm --dbpath /var/lib/my_rpm
--initdb’ command. After that, using the ‘--dbpath’ option I can
select at which RPM_DB an RPM is going to be installed. The problem is when I try to install an RPM in
the private RPM_DB which has dependencies on other packages which exist in the system’s default
RPM_DB. Is there any way for the second RPM_DB to somehow extend the
default DB while installing a package ? This means that when installing an RPM in the private RPM_DB
it should first check for dependencies in BOTH RPM databases. Also is there any way for “synchronizing” two or
more RPM Databases ? Thanks for your time in advance With best regards, Ioannis Ganotis |
