Re: how to differentiate between binary and source rpm

["Rohitashva Sharma" <rs1975in gmail com>]

Hi,
I tried 'file' command and also got good result

> file cdb-soap-auth-cern-nice-1.0.8-1.src.rpm cdb-soap-auth-cern-nice-1.0.8-1.src.rpm: RPM v3 src i386 cdb-soap-auth-cern-nice-1.0.8-1

> file cdb-soap-auth-cern-nice-1.0.8-1.noarch.rpm
cdb-soap-auth-cern-nice-1.0.8-1.noarch.rpm: RPM v3 bin i386
cdb-soap-auth-cern-nice-1.0.8-1

Sharma
