Thanks! Unfortunately, the documentaiton seems to make reference
(the max-rpm guide as well[1]) to headerDump() which would be
perfect, but this doesn't seem to exist any longer in the RPM
API. Are there any other good, quick meaningful ways to dump a
header's information or print out the information from the rpm
transaction?

I don't think that does what you think it does.

Can you be more specific regarding exactly what information you're
trying to display?  Package NEVRA?  Dependency info?  Package
contents?  What?

The headerDump would be perfect to dump the entirety of the header structure's contents. Really all I need in the end is something in terms of the package, and version information to compare it to a list of packages that need to be upgraded for vulnerability reasons.

Suggestions would be great as I feel like I'm just stabbing in the dark right now.
