I also start with: rpm -q --qf "%{NAME}.%{ARCH}\n" -a | sort > rpms.txt I run it on both old and new to get a lits of rpms without any specific version numbers. I can then compare them with the "comm" tool to get lists of rpms on one system but not on the other. That doesn't help with all the rpms that have been dropped or repackages and renamed, but it gets lots of stuff as a starting point. -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
