Hello,

I'm currently looking into a way to do an upgrade from rpm 3.0.6.

Do I have to go the rpm 4.0.4 route first? From what I can see in the
rpm releases archive, version 4.4.9 still includes the convertdb1 tool.

What would be the optimal way to upgrade the database format?

The update would be done without user interaction on around 2.000 boxes.
We run "rpm --rebuilddb" during every update package we push out,
so the database should be in a sane state.

Thanks in advance,
Thomas
