How will this work in situations like the builders. Rpm on f23 makes the f24 
chroots. I am guessing that will be mostly ok, the db will just have the old 
format. But what about when we move the builders to f24 and use f24 and rpm 
with the new db format to make rhel 5, 6, 7 and Fedora, 22 and 23 buildroots. 
Is there the potential that things will break horribly?
