This command refers to the package stats. If you remove a package that way, you remove it from the database altogether. You cannot refer to it any more from any catalogs for instance. In this case, Peter only wants to break a bond between a particular svr4 file and a few catalogs. > or > pkgdb del-from-cat <osrel> <arch> <cat-release> `gmd5sum <dialog_minimal…>` > > Maciej: right? Possibly, although this low level operation doesn't prevent you from breaking catalogs. The safe_remove_package.py script is a better approach, because it does sanity checks and bails out if the operation would break the catalog.
