systemd tools require /proc to be mounted and fail if it's not there.
- Enable release packages to request a releaxed suse/opensuse vendorcheck
in dup when migrating. (bsc#1182629)
- Patch: Identify well-known category names (bsc#1179847) This allows to

- RpmDb: If no database exists use the _dbpath configured in rpm. Still
makes sure a compat symlink at /var/lib/rpm exists in case the
configures _dbpath is elsewhere. (bsc#1178910)
