Hi,

Here's what "gcj-dbtool --rebuild" needs to do:

Merge all db files in "$prefix/lib/gcj-$gcc_version/classmap.db.d/" into
"$prefix/lib/gcj-$gcc_version/classmap.db".

Even better for FC5 would be eliminating the need for individual .db
files altogether.  We could have "gcj-dbtool --rebuild" compare the .sos
in /usr/lib with the database contents and add/remove any new/missing
entries to/from classmap.db.  Shipping a .db file per package is one
divergence from JPackage spec files that Fernando's proposal doesn't
address but that an improved gcj-dbtool would.
