FWIW I found the new database backend (not mentioned anywhere in the

Since this change has (rashly) been approved by FESCO, I guess we're
going to be copying this code into some libguestfs tools, and we'll
have to keep up with changes to RPM. It's a drag compared to using a
real key-value store.
May I ask why? Accessing rpm database in a different way than through librpm
API is highly discouraged even now.
