[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] RFE: rpm without database (#1151)

Would it be possible to implement a "filesystem" database backend? Most likely. We've even tossed it around a few times between ourselves, but there's just very little benefit and all manner of downsides, such as those @Conan-Kudo already mentioned. I wouldn't call locking, atomic operations and the like "obfuscation".

I don't see us working on this, and because of those issues I don't see us wanting to maintain one even if somebody else did the work up front.
