I have a (maybe stupid) question for which I hope you can give me an answer, I also made many searches on Google without success. I have an RPM database in a non-standard location with many packages installed with the --relocate option. Now I need to move everything in a different location, and of course, if I try the --verify option it reports that all RPM-related files are missing. Is there a way to upgrade the database so that all the files paths reflect the new location? Many thanks in advance for your answer, Matteo _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.rpm.org/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list _______________________________________________ Rpm-list mailing list Rpm-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.rpm.org/mailman/listinfo/rpm-list
