# ./rpm --initdb
 	# ./rpm -q rpm
 	old format database is present; use --rebuilddb ...

It ould be nice if --initdb would report an old format
database as well as -q does.

Thanks for reporting.

Comment 2 Jeff Johnson 2001-01-08 16:20:08 UTC

Reporting existence of  an old  gdbm database is moot these days.
