I've spent the last halk hour or so reading the 'rpm' man page, and trying various rpm options, but I've been unable to figure out how to, if it's possible, get info (read the specfile??) on what installing a particular rpm package file *will* do during the install. I use 'rpm -qil foo' all the time to see how 'foo' was installed from an rpm package file. I'd like to see the same info for a package yet to be installed or updated. The problem that's driving this question is: [root@localhost new_soft]# ls librep*.rpm librep-0.15.2-1.i386.rpm librep-devel-0.15.2-1.i386.rpm [root@localhost new_soft]# rpm -Uvh --test librep*.rpm Preparing... ########################################### [10= 0%] package librep-0.13.6-5 (which is newer than librep-0.15.2-1) is already in= stalled package librep-devel-0.13.6-5 (which is newer than librep-devel-0.15.2-1) i= s already installed I want to check dates to see what's going on. Any ideas? thank you. --=20 - Martin J.
