Re: [K12OSN] bad rpm database after restore from backup

[Julius Szelagiewicz <julius turtle com>]

Dear Folks,
	the system is downgraded, but the full backup was not as smoothly
restored as I have hoped for.
	as a for instance: the /var/lib/rpm directory looks goot, but rpm
and apt-get just blow up. Trying to restore rpm database:
[root solinden rpm]# rpm --rebuilddb
rpmdb: fatal region error detected; run recovery
error: db4 error(-30982) from dbenv->open: DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error,
run database recovery
error: cannot open Packages index

any thoughts? what went wrong? the backup was done and restored with "cpio
-pudmv" command. tia, julius
