Wouldn't it be better if rpmdb gets dump/load/stat options? -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

Converting databases is painful, particularly if both forward/backward conversions are desired. BerkeleyDB has a set of utilities to do this conversion, LMDB uses an almost identical set of utilities. While rpmdb --importdb/--exportdb are a high performing KISS improvement on the BDB-style dump/load, there are still needs to display key<->value pairs in human readable (i.e. not just hex/binary) format. The LMDB licensed mdb_dump/mdb_load utilities could be swiped and modified to handle NDB pretty easily to provide a well-understood (and used by libvirt iirc) common import/export/format. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
