6 \fBrpm\fR {\fB--initdb|--rebuilddb\fR}
9 The general form of an rpm rebuild database command is
12 \fBrpm\fR {\fB--initdb|--rebuilddb\fR} [\fB-v\fR] [\fB--dbpath \fIDIRECTORY\fB\fR] [\fB--root \fIDIRECTORY\fB\fR]
15 Use \fB--initdb\fR to create a new database if one doesn't already exist
16 (existing database is not overwritten), use
17 \fB--rebuilddb\fR to rebuild the database indices from
18 the installed package headers.
33 \fBrpm --help\fR - as rpm supports customizing the options via popt aliases
34 it's impossible to guarantee that what's described in the manual matches
