There's also TDB from Samba. I certainly don't know RPM's requirements, but it seems shortsighted from a long-term maintenance point of view to implement a custom database, both from a format and a code point of view. The prime reason to change away from BDB is "doubts about its future and level of maintenance" - how is reinventing a wheel any easier than keeping an existing wheel working? -- Chris Adams <linux@xxxxxxxxxxx> -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
