31 rpmdb2solv \- convert the rpm database into a solv file
34 \fBrpmdb2solv\fR [\fIOPTIONS\fR] [\fIREFFILE\&.solv\fR]
37 The rpmdb2solv tool reads rpm\(cqs installed packages database and writes it in solv file format to standard output\&. You can make use of an old version of the database by specifying a \fIREFFILE\&.solv\fR file\&.
39 \fB\-o\fR \fIOUTFILE\fR
41 Write the generated solv to
43 instead of standard output\&.
48 Print percentages as packages are being read in\&. The output format is like rpm\(cqs \-\-percent option\&.
51 \fB\-r\fR \fIROOTDIR\fR
60 Read pubkeys from the rpm database instead of installed packages\&. Note that many distributions stopped storing pubkeys in the database but use a directory like
61 \fB/var/lib/rpm/pubkeys\fR
68 \fB/usr/share/appdata\fR
69 for installed appdata files and create pseudo packages for each file\&.
72 \fB\-p\fR \fIPRODDIR\fR
74 Also read SUSE product files from directory
75 \fIPRODDIR\fR\&. The standard directory is
76 \fB/etc/products\&.d\fR\&.
81 Do not read any packages from the rpm database\&. This is useful together with
83 to only convert SUSE products\&.
88 Autoexpand SUSE pattern and product provides into packages\&.
