and if you do this prequently enough, you'll find this little script handy
(and with cleaner output)

[cgalpin@pooh cgalpin]$ less bin/rpmgrind
#!/bin/sh
# rpmgrind: (greps/finds things in rpms)
# usage: cd dir_w_rpms; rpmgrind word

word=$1

for rpm in *.rpm;  do
   rpm -qlp ${rpm} | grep -qs ${word}
   if [ "$?" != 1 ]; then
        echo ${rpm}
   fi
done
