rebuilding rpmdb package as non-root

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

 



I'm making a very simple repository-rebuild script, and I want to build
everything as non-root (because, at the very least, it's annoying
otherwise). As part of this, it'd be handy to automatically rebuild the
rpmdb package. But that fails, because it can't get a transaction lock as
non-root. But it's only working on its own separate database -- shouldn't it
be able to get a lock?

Or, should I just ditch the rpmdb package? Does it really serve a useful
purpose these days?

Thanks.
