Without -p on installed names of things. So that would be: rpm -qpi packagename.rpm dpkg --info packagename.deb To query installed packages by name. rpm -qi packagename dpkg --status packagename Bob Any reply would be much appreciated.

Hi Bob, you are right. That wasnt very clever. I start a new topic. Ignore my entry.

MySQL on debian amd64
Hi Debian fans, Today I installed and configured MySQL (its not the first time I am doing this so I am a bit puzzled). 1) I am unable to set the default-character-set in /etc/my.cnf. I tried default-character-set=ujis and default_character_set=ujis under the [mysqld] section, but both dont work. Is this a possible bug ? Who is actually packing the files MySQL AB themselves ? 2)How would I know the full .deb package name (including version number) containing the mysql server files. Using dpkg --list mysql-server just gives me the version number? I am actually looking foran equivalent to rpm -qi packagename.rpm. Any reply would be much appreciated.
