Well, os-tree is doing filesystem rollback / -rollforward by architecture. If you want to feed rpm into it, it may be tricky. But this argues for just moving rpmdb for rpm-oss-tree, since os-tree has its own logic anyway. No need and no advantage to do it for non-rpm-os-tree systems as well. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
