On a multilib system, you will have packages for multiple architectures. Without the trailing .arch, when you reinstall, only the default architecture will be installed. Here is an example. I have both 64 bit and 32 bit pulseaudio-libs because of Skype. $ rpm -q --queryformat="%{name}.%{arch}\n" pulseaudio-libs pulseaudio-libs.x86_64 pulseaudio-libs.i686 Without the trailing .arch, I will only get the x86_64 package when reinstalling from the list. > and the original also gets noarch: > > rpm -qa --queryformat='%{name}\n' |grep adobe > adobe-release-x86_64 > adobe-source-han-sans-cn-fonts > adobe-source-han-sans-twhk-fonts This will get noarch too! Just look at your first output, it includes man-pages. Cheers, -- Suvayu Open source is the future.
