Hello,

I have a general question and a particular question.

I begin with the particular question. I want to know if this rpm:
rpm -qi postfix

has mysql and quota support.

and in general, how can I see how was compiled a rpm to know what  it is
built on it and what not. ?

Thanks in advance


In general you would download the source RPM, install it and look at the spec file and the build configuration files. If the package doesn't support options you want you can often modify these to suit your requirements, and rebuild the RPM.
