This is a tracking bug for Change: Sqlite RpmDB For more details, see: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Sqlite_Rpmdb Change format of the RPM database from Berkeley DB to a new Sqlite format.
Default rpmdb backend switched to sqlite as of rpm >= 4.15.90-0.git14971.11
Some specifically tested scenarios with images from May 11th: - fresh install of rawhide (server) is installed directly using sqlite database - upgrade from f32 (server) with both system-upgrade and distro-sync converts rpmdb to sqlite on next reboot automatically - livecd (workstation) using sqlite database once booted No rpm-specific issues noted in any of the above.
The above comment implies that conversion on upgrade has been implemented, but the Change page "dependencies" and "release notes" sections read like this isn't decided yet. Does the Change page need updating?
Oops, indeed. Updated now, thanks for pointing that out!
Koji builds still using bdb backend, switch to mock bootstrap and thus sqlite as rpmdb is expected some time after the data center move has completed.
Is there a diagram of database structure? Or if you can attach the database here I can build a diagram myself. I am interested if I will be able to find some of these fields in the new DB. name old, new version - either normal version without epoch, or "none" one line description - what the package is about changes - between installed and new version if update is critical - what are CVEs what packages are system installed (blue), what are user installed (yellow) and what are their automatic dependencies (white) full package description Originally asked here https://github.com/rpm-software-management/libdnf/issues/962#issuecomment-635891894
Branching F33 Change Tracker bugs. Today is the code complete (testable) deadline. All bugs should be at least in MODIFIED state by now to indicate they are testable.
Yesterday we reached the Code complete (100% code complete) deadline for Fedora 33 Changes. If your Change is complete, please set this tracking bug to ON_QA. If you need to defer this Change to Fedora 34, please let NEEDINFO me. As a reminder, we are now in the Beta Freeze. If you need to land package updates, please propose it as a Freeze Exception at https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/propose_bug
The feature is complete from rpm point of view. Koji has not been updated to use mock bootstrap so builds (packages and images) are falling back to using BDB as the db backend but this is beyond our control, and is not a reason to defer.
Closing tracking bugs for F33. If your change didn't make it into F33 for some reason, please reopen this and NEEDINFO me.
