Re: dnf history - change in how rpmdb checksum is computed

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I would like to see dnf history not being messed up by direct installations with `rpm -i`.

While `dnf history` is a great feature, it would be even greater if the related functionality
was implemented directly in rpmdb and both rpm and dnf used that db. Meaning that
any consistency checks would be in that db too.

Just an idea.

The real problem is that both E:N-V-R.A and N-E:V-R.A  are equally imprecise.

The concept of "reproducible builds/installs" requires much more complete identifiers for serious work. But that was not the question asked in this thread.

So calculating both checksums, on rearranged plaintext items, for compatibility, kinda misses the underlying need to verify system installs on hundreds of machines.
