> Abstract:
> when installing a new OpenPKG instance using
> openpkg-20020208-20020208.src.sh the RPM DB does not exists
>
> Manifest:
> # /cw/bin/rpm -qa
> error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - No such file or directory (2)
>
> Issue:
> The openpkg-20020208-20020208.src.sh script has a bug which makes it
> "forget" initializing the RPM DB.
> This is not a problem when upgrading, it appears only when installing a
> new instance from scratch. The
> solution below shows how to initialize the RPM DB and upgrade to itself,
> which fixes the problem.
>
> Solution (workaround):
> # /cw/bin/rpm --initdb
> # /cw/bin/rpm -qa
> (the error is gone but the database is empty)
> # /cw/bin/rpm -Uvh openpkg-20020208-20020208.*-*.rpm
> (ignore warnings)
>
> Verify the solution
> # /cw/bin/rpm -qa
> openpkg-20020208-20020208
This was already fixed a few weeks ago. The openpkg.boot was broken.
