That, and you'll also need to check any scripts and triggers the package
has. Especially 3rd party commercial packages tend to do the real
installation in rpm post scripts scribbling all sorts of junk over the
place, typical example would be something like
$ rpm -qpl <vendor-rpm>
/tmp/vendor.tar.gz
..and if you check with rpm -qp --scripts <vendor-rpm> you'll find a very,
uh, creative ways to extract the contained tarball into /opt in a good
case or all around the system disk in a more typical case.
