Hi,
I am implementing one API to get the list of files using RPMTAG_FILENAMES.
I found that RPMTAG_FILENAMES is removed in 5.1.9.
Please correct me if I am wrong,
there is no other option to to get the list of files in a rpm rather than
parsing the directories(RPMTAG_DIRNAMES) ,
dir indexes(DIRINDEXES) and basenames(BASENAMES) tags.
That is the correct way to do it. The FILENAMES has been deprecated for years,
and was finally removed.
I've got something I put together back in about 2002 that might help you
visualize the structures:

Basically you do:
i = index
<dirname>/<filename> = Dirnames[Dirindexes[i]]/Basenames[i]
Pretty simple to reconcile, it's just three structures instead of one.

Is there any other option (TAG) to get the list of files?.
Thanks and Regards,
