A default package listing such as {{{rpm -qa}}} might appear to include duplicate packages, since the architecture is not displayed. Instead, use the {{{repoquery}}} command, part of the `yum-utils` package in Fedora Extras, which displays architecture by default. To install `yum-utils`, run the following command: - {{{ - su -c 'yum install yum-utils' + ##{{{ su -c 'yum install yum-utils' - }}} + ##}#}} To list all packages with their architecture using {{{rpm}}}, run the following command: - {{{ - rpm -qa --queryformat "%{name}-%{version}-%{release}.%{arch}\n" + ##{{{ rpm -qa --queryformat "%{name}-%{version}-%{release}.%{arch}\n" - }}} + ##}}} You can add this to `/etc/rpm/macros` (for a system wide setting) or `~/.rpmmacros` (for a per-user setting). It changes the default query to list the architecture: - {{{ - %_query_all_fmt %%{name}-%%{version}-%%{release}.%%{arch} + ##{{{ %_query_all_fmt %%{name}-%%{version}-%%{release}.%%{arch} + ##}}} }}}
