[opensuse-factory] How to check the sanity of the system

Someone can tell me how to check the sanity of the system? I have 2 installations of opensuse 10.3 beta 3: 1- 32 bits upgraded from 10.2 beta 2 kde 2- x86-64 kde, instaled from zero in 10.3 beta 2 (previous versions of x86-64, could not be installed because the bug of the ahci driver). In the 32 bits I found 2 weeks ago some libraries named libstdc++*, which date was from year 2000, i would to verify from which package are it, but with rpm -q could not detect it, and I moved it to a backup directory. This 32 bits system has from time to time a rpmdb crashes, and acls from the removabledevices do'nt work right. Then I asked You how to check the sanity of the system. If I do'nt find the way, I must to format the 32 bits system partition, and later add the packages from non official repos, and recompile some applications. The x86-64 works better than the 32 bits version, do'nt has the rpmdb crashes and the acls for the removable devices works fine. The common problem with the 32 bits version, is with the wxGTK based applications.

You can get the 'rpm -q' output sorted by installation date. My preferred method is (was) this: rpm -q -a --queryformat "%{INSTALLTIME}\t%{INSTALLTIME:day} \ %{BUILDTIME:day} %-30{NAME}\t%15{VERSION}-%-7{RELEASE} \ %25{PACKAGER}\n" | sort | less -S You can add the fields you like to that output (--querytags gives you the available tags). Or you can use "rpm -q -a --last" which sorts directly.
This 32 bits system has from time to time a rpmdb crashes,
Try a rebuild of the database. Or reinstall an older version of the database, a backup is created by cron daily, I think. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
