Colin Walters 456a3ec7c2 compose: Add rpmdb option, default to bdb
The design of https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Sqlite_Rpmdb
is problematic for us for multiple reasons.  The first big reason
is that rpm-ostree is designed for "cross" builds and e.g. today
we use a Fedora-derived container to build RHEL CoreOS images.

However the default database lives inside the `rpm` package which
means that if we e.g. upgrade the coreos-assembler container to F33
it will suddenly try to use sqlite for RHCOS which is obviously broken.

Related to this, rebases from f32 to f33 w/layered packages
are broken: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1876194#c3

With this we can configure things to continue to use bdb for f33
for ostree-based systems, so that by enforcing an upgrade order
f32 → f33 [bdb] → f34 [sqlite] ... the intermediate f33 w/bdb
still understands sqlite and hence rebases will work.

Tests are divided into three groups:

  • Tests in the check directory are non-destructive and uninstalled. Some of the tests require root privileges. Use make check to run these.

  • The composecheck tests currently require uid 0 capabilities - the default in Docker, or you can run them via a user namespace. They are non-destructive, but are installed.

    To use them, you might do a make && sudo make install inside a Docker container.

    Then invoke ./tests/compose. Alternatively of course, you can simply run the tests on a host system or in an existing container, without doing a build.

    Note: This is intentionally not a Makefile target because it doesn't require building and doesn't use uninstalled binaries.

  • Tests in the vmcheck directory are oriented around using Vagrant. Use make vmcheck to run them. See also HACKING.md in the top directory.

The common directory contains files used by multiple tests. The utils directory contains helper utilities required to run the tests.
