RPMDB(8)               DragonFly System Manager's Manual              RPMDB(8)

NAME
       rpmdb - RPM Database Tool

SYNOPSIS
       rpm {--initdb|--rebuilddb}

DESCRIPTION
       The general form of an rpm rebuild database command is

       rpm {--initdb|--rebuilddb} [-v] [--dbpath DIRECTORY] [--root DIRECTORY]

       Use --initdb to create a new database if one doesn't already exist
       (existing database is not overwritten), use --rebuilddb to rebuild the
       database indices from the installed package headers.

       rpm --help - as rpm supports customizing the options via popt aliases
       it's impossible to guarantee that what's described in the manual
       matches what's available.
