Hey Group;

I was going to check the RPM database for various pieces of software versions. Say like Open Office by "rpm --qa *". To which the rpm database comes up with Amarok-1.4.6 only. I would have expected a dump of the programss. So I did a remake of the RPM database "rpm --rebuilddb" then "rpm --initdb" and still it finds only Amarok. This was done as "root". Am I doing it wrong or is there some other new trick. "rpm -q" rpmfilename seems to work but rpm "-q *" or "-qa *" fails to work. Is this a Senior Moment or bad memory problem.

Ultimately I was going to "rpm -qa * | grep open"
