       The osinfo-db-path tool will report the paths associated with the standard osinfo database locations:

       system
        This  is  the  primary  system-wide  database  location,  intended  for  use by operating system vendors
        distributing database files in the native package format.

       local
        This is the secondary system-wide database location, intended for use by system  administrators  wishing
        to provide an updated database for all users.

       user
        This  is  the  user  private  database location, intended for use by unprivileged local users wishing to
        provide applications they use with an updated database.

       If run by a privileged account (ie root), the local  database  location  will  be  reported  by  default,
       otherwise the user location will be reported.

       The exit status will be 0 if the requested path was reported, or 1 if the arguments were invalid.
