Hi, I am not too sure whether this type of switch is provided. Pls correct me If anyone knows. But I think by writing a script we can get the list of installed rpm needed by package. e.g #rpm -q --whatprovides `rpm -qp --requires xyz-1.0-1.i386.rpm` command will list the rpm package used by xyz-1.0.1.i386.rpm before installing. ---Brijesh On Sun, 17 Oct 2004 10:48:18 +0200, John Que <qwejohn@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hello, > > I know that rpm -qR name_of_rpm_package shows me a list of libs that the > libs which are required by this rpm ( also : rpm -q --requires > name_of_rpm_package > does the same). > > Is there a way to know the (first level) rpms that this rpm requires? > > for example, > for , it requires: > apr-0.9.4-11.i386.rpm > db4-4.2.52-3.1.i386.rpm > apr-util-0.9.4-14.i386.rpm > > and some more .
