Hello All -- First post and I'm completely new to YUM, but as I'm learning I'm also documenting my every step as I migrate from RHN to YUM. Anyhow.. for the sake of documentation I am trying to 'illustrate' how YUM 'works.. And, as I'm reading the 'How it Works' info on the website I'm curious about the following line <snip> Every rpm has a header. That header contains a complete file list, package descriptions, lists of what features/libs it provides, lists of what it requires, what it conflicts with etc. In order for rpm to make a decision about what an rpm will need to be installed it needs the information in the header. </snip> My question is.. how can I view this 'header'? How can I see exactly what YUM see's when it determines what dependencies and such? I imagine this is a simple RPM command? Just curious and documenting.. Jeff
