yum install yum-utils
repoquery -l proftpd
Be aware that repoquery can sometimes take a little while to run.
Here's a hack that will download a file from the repository, unpack it
into a temporary directory and drop you into a shell to look around.
Exit the shell and it will clean up. It's a hack: no security, no
error checking. Have fun.
