Re: Query Regarding RPM

[devzero2000 <pinto elia gmail com>]

If you want attribute the package ownership, so  you can  find  later,  to  the  shar  utility that have installed the package you
can, but it is only an idea, to define in your spec file

Packager (or Vendor): <your shar file>

So you can later query for example 

rpm -qa --qf 'Package %{name}-%{version}-%{release}.%{arch} was installed by %{packager} \n"

Sure, look as an hack, and it is. In fact, some better rpm tags would  be more "right" to use : Vendor or Packager have other use.

Thanks a lot for the response, but it did not give me the shar file name
To make my query more clear, we have created shell archive of the rpm files
I want to know  which shell archive file is used,  after installation

Thanks!

Hi chinna,

 Im not very sure about your query but I will suggest you a command that
will qive the entire list of the binaries and the shared libraries
that is being installed
by a package.

 The command is rpm -qlp xyz.rpm
