[noa@localhost rpm]$ rpm -q rpmdb-redhat rpmdb-redhat-7.0.90-0.20010126 [noa@localhost rpm]$ rpm --redhatprovides foobar error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - No such file or directory (2) a strace reveals that rpm seems to ignore the *.rpm files in /usr/lib/rpmdb/i386-redhat-linux/redhat/ (old format) and instead trying to open Packages (new format) which isn't there. open("/usr/lib/rpmdb/i386-redhat-linux/redhat/Packages", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) so the rpmdb-redhat package should be updated to use the new db format (and a component for the rpmdb-redhat package should be added to bugzilla)
