rpm --initdb does not create Names database


Reported by: nijel Assigned to: RpmTickets Priority: major Milestone: rpm-4.9.0 Component: rpm Version: RPM Development Keywords: Cc:


Description

The Names database is not created by rpm --initdb and rpm later complains when it is not existing (no packages were installed, we're just getting information from existing rpm packages).

  • status changed from new to closed.
  • resolution set to fixed.
  • milestone set to rpm-4.9.0.

This got finally fixed in HEAD, --initdb now initiates all the indexes too. Not initializing the indexes doesn't make much of a difference for "normal" rpm usage where the database is always populated but should hurt anything either, and it made sense for some other related items...
