Re: [Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] How can I find details on the binary representation of the RPM DB? (Discussion #2211)
If you don't want to link to librpm, then other option is to use rpm cli. Everything about the packages is accessible with rpm cli queries. I don't understand your use-case, but if you absolutely need the package information on file-system then create that info using rpm queries, as a part of the container image create process or otherwise. We even ship with a cron script to do this daily (see script/rpm.daily in the source) that you can use as a basis if it doesn't do what you need. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/discussions/2211#discussioncomment-7484095 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

Nope. Is there a reason that using librpm is not an option? If there is, you will need to reverse-engineer the format and keep pace with whatever librpm does. Could you compile librpm to WebAssembly and create a new WebAssembly runtime for each container? That could be a solution to security concerns. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/discussions/2211#discussioncomment-7482856 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

This restricts our use case (container vulnerability scanning): is there a recommended way to see package information from the filesystem (like how Debian has `/var/lib/dpkg/info/[PACKAGE].list` files) -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/discussions/2211#discussioncomment-7482049 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
