RPM Upgrade

Linux Add comments

rpm -vv –rebuilddb

we have added the option -vv here, so that there is visible progress and lots of detail during the rebuild process — A worried admin is often impatient at a lack of visible progress — this option causes the rebuild process to be quite verbose

The way a rpm –rebuilddb command works, it creates a temporary directory to work in at: /var/lib/, next to the ‘parent’ one at: /var/lib/rpm/ and attempts a rebuild. As it gets to the very bottom of a normal rebuild, it replaces the new content over top of the old files.
