But this query says it's not installed. In fact all RPMs I've downloaded and installed, when -qi is run on them, say they're not installed. Wha wha waht? Also, is there any way to know whether and what kind of compression is used in an RPM? I'm guessing the Size value of 60M above is installed size. The package size is 24M so there must be some kind of compression being used. But 'man rpm | grep -i compress' yields no results. -- Chris Murphy _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
