Glad to help ... also 
I've been working on bash scripting, and also wrote this script from
that alias .... I don't always know what all these packages actually
are. So I added a sorted list of all the rpm info ..
For any interested ....
Here it is .....

#!/bin/bash
#######################################################
#  filename:    rpminfo.sh
#  date:        2004-07-26
#  author:      ricks ( [EMAIL PROTECTED] )
#  generates list of installed rpms. Sort the results,
#  appending the date to a text file.
#  then lists info for same rpm list, to another file
#######################################################
#  *.txt is the list of rpms installed
#  *.list is the info for each of the rpms installed from list txt
file#######################################################

DATE=`date +%d%m%y_%I%M`
FILE1=/home/ricks/backup/rpmlist-$DATE.txt
FILE2=/home/ricks/backup/rpmlist-$DATE.list

rpm -qa | sort > $FILE1
xargs rpm -qi < $FILE1 > $FILE2

HTH too ...
