Package Manager. (Inspecting what was installed).

[sepoto]

I used the GUI package manager to install:

php-5.3.10-1.fc16

What would be the best way to see all of the files that were installed on the system by this particular package. I don't really care about the dependencies. I'm trying to find the quickest way at getting at that nugget. Does anyone know what to do with that?

I just looked over man yum. I really did not see it in there yet.

Alright so this is what it is I think:

[penguin@Penguin-PC ~]$ repoquery --list php-5.3.10-1.fc16
/etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf
/usr/lib/httpd/modules/libphp5-zts.so
/usr/lib/httpd/modules/libphp5.so
/var/lib/php/session
/var/www/icons/php.gif
[penguin@Penguin-PC ~]$

That is an impressively short list of files. I like that.

One way you might confirm it is to run this:

rpm -qa --last | tac

It's a list of all packages installed in chronological order. So, if you just installed php-5.3.10-1.fc16 then the date and time for other packages should pin them down as being included.

When you installed php, it also installed php-cli and php-common packages as dependencies. The php-common package contains many more files than the php package.

rpm -ql php-common php-cli

[sepoto]

So that leads me to the other question of how does one list the dependencies for a .fc16. I see some references to how to do that for a .rpm on the forum already but an .fc16 is not really an rpm file. How should that problem be approached?

[nonamedotc]

You can use yum deplist package_name. This is what I have, for example.

As far as I know, *.fc16 simply indicates Fedora version that the package was meant to ...

[PabloTwo]

You're seeing a "problem" that doesn't exist. Yum and rpm can reference an rpm package in several ways.
The full rpm package file name is composed of several elements: name-version-release.arch.rpm

rpm -q --queryformat "%{name}-%{version}-%{release}.%{arch}\n" audacious
audacious-3.0.4-1.fc16.x86_64

In the above, "1.fc16" is the "release". All the following are valid formats to use with either rpm or yum.

audacious-3.0.4-1.fc16.x86_64
audacious-3.0.4-1.fc16
audacious-3.0.4
audacious.x86_64

You only use the full rpm package name, including the .rpm extension, when dealing directly with the package file.

"man rpm" and "man yum"

If you wanted to see the "dependencies" for installed package php, then:

rpm -qR php

For tidier output to the "yum deplist packagname" command:

BASH:~/-> yum deplist php | grep provider | uniq -u | awk '{print $2}'
bzip2-libs.i686
libcom_err.i686
glibc.i686
openssl.i686
gmp.i686
pcre.i686
openssl.i686
zlib.i686
php-cli.i686
php-common.i686
glibc.x86_64
glibc.i686
bzip2-libs.x86_64
libcom_err.x86_64
glibc.x86_64
openssl.x86_64
gmp.x86_64
pcre.x86_64
openssl.x86_64
zlib.x86_64
php-cli.x86_64
php-common.x86_64
glibc.x86_64
glibc.i686

You'll see both .i686 and .x86_64 entries if you're using an .x86_64 install of Fedora, even though only the .x86_64 versions would be the actual deps.

[randomuser]

There's a lot for the OP to learn from this thread!

In response to the original question, rpm -qs $PACKAGENAME will show the files installed by a package.

There's not a lot TO that package. Is there a particular problem you are having with php?

[Doug G]

If you have yum-utils installed you can use

repoquery --list <packagename>
