Branch: CURRENT, Version: 4.20.1nb1, Package name: rpm-4.20.1nb1, Maintainer: pkgsrc-users

This is the Red Hat Package Manager. It is used to manipulate Red Hat
packages, much in the same way as the pkg_* tools are used in FreeBSD
and NetBSD. rpm's come in their own format, and are typically used in
the Linux community for binary package administration.

Log message:
Have misc/rpm initialize and seek its package database under
RPM_DB_PREFIX, not PREFIX/RPM_DB_PREFIX, in sync with {,DE}INSTALL.

Why RPM_DB_PREFIX defaults to VARBASE/pkg instead of just VARBASE, I
cannot see (historical raisins?), but I'll leave that for now.
