In the man rpm page there is an extense list of commands and options but I usually use rpm -q name_of_the_rpm_package. This will display a list of all the files that the rpm contains. This is the first step. If the fil that you are looking for it's in the package you can make an rpm -e name_of_the_rpm_package to uninstall the package and a rpm -i -v name_of_the_rpm_package to install it again and to look for the display messages of the files installed. I hope this could help ... I'm a newbie too!

I am wondering because I installed the GSL rpm but I do not find the gsl_math.h file. Something went perhaps wrong during the installation... Thanks a lot Fred
