Hi all, on one of my boxes.. I had an rpm problem that could not be fixed with --rebuilddb
I had to do --initdb then --rebuilddb to get it functional again.. unfortunately it has forgotten most of my installed packages and as such, MandrakeUpdate never offeres any updates and I can't make sure my packages are up to date.. Is there any way to have rpm look for installed packages and list them?? Do I have to do a upgrade /install over the current version to get it functional again? this is a web/mysql server, so it needs to be up to date.. Its running a digital cert and everything, so I don't want to start from scratch if I can avoid it.. but by the same token I can't allow it to fall behind on patches.. if it gets hacked.. I will not get the opportuntity to instal more linux boxs at work. any ideas guys??? rgds Frank
