NAME

6       rpmdb2solv - convert the rpm database into a solv file
7

SYNOPSIS

9       rpmdb2solv [OPTIONS] [REFFILE.solv]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       The rpmdb2solv tool reads rpm’s installed packages database and writes
13       it in solv file format to standard output. You can make use of an old
14       version of the database by specifying a REFFILE.solv file.
15
16       -o OUTFILE
17           Write the generated solv to OUTFILE instead of standard output.
18
19       -P
20           Print percentages as packages are being read in. The output format
21           is like rpm’s --percent option.
22
23       -r ROOTDIR
24           Use ROOTDIR as root directory.
25
26       -D DBPATH
27           Use the database in the DBPATH directory.
28
29       -k
30           Read pubkeys from the rpm database instead of installed packages.
31           Note that many distributions stopped storing pubkeys in the
32           database but use a directory like /var/lib/rpm/pubkeys instead.
33
34       -A
35           Also scan the /usr/share/appdata for installed appdata files and
36           create pseudo packages for each file.
37
38       -p PRODDIR
39           Also read SUSE product files from directory PRODDIR. The standard
40           directory is /etc/products.d.
41
42       -n
43           Do not read any packages from the rpm database. This is useful
44           together with -p to only convert SUSE products.
45
46       -C
47           Include the package changelog in the generated solv file.
48
49       -X
50           Autoexpand SUSE pattern and product provides into packages.
