Did you try removing --ignoreos? That option is only valid when installing a package. Both --root and --dbpath should be valid for any command. BTW: Did you (or any Linux package) run the Linux rpm by any change? The reason I ask is because the Linux rpm converts the database to something incompatible with the FreeBSD rpm (ie the FreeBSD port of rpm is outdated). -- Marcel Moolenaar mail: marcel@cup.hp.com / marcel@FreeBSD.org tel: (408) 447-4222 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-emulation" in the body of the message
