104 rpm is a powerful Package Manager, which can be used to build, install,
105 query, verify, update, and erase individual software packages. A pack‐
106 age consists of an archive of files and meta-data used to install and
107 erase the archive files. The meta-data includes helper scripts, file
108 attributes, and descriptive information about the package. Packages
109 come in two varieties: binary packages, used to encapsulate software to
110 be installed, and source packages, containing the source code and
111 recipe necessary to produce binary packages.
112 One of the following basic modes must be selected: Query, Verify,
114 Install/Upgrade/Freshen/Reinstall, Uninstall, Set Owners/Groups, Show
115 Querytags, and Show Configuration.
116 GENERAL OPTIONS
118 These options can be used in all the different modes.
119 -?, --help
121 Print a longer usage message then normal.
122 --version
124 Print a single line containing the version number of rpm being
125 used.
126 --quiet
128 Print as little as possible - normally only error messages will
129 be displayed.
130 -v, --verbose
132 Print verbose information - normally routine progress messages
133 will be displayed.
134 -vv Print lots of ugly debugging information.
136 --rcfile FILELIST
138 Replace the list of configuration files to be read. Each of the
139 files in the colon separated FILELIST is read sequentially by
140 rpm for configuration information. Only the first file in the
141 list must exist, and tildes will be expanded to the value of
142 $HOME. The default FILELIST is /usr/lib/rpm/rpmrc:/usr/lib/rpm/
143 redhat/rpmrc:/etc/rpmrc:~/.rpmrc.
144 --load FILE
147 Load an individual macro file.
148 --macros FILELIST
151 Replace the list of macro files to be loaded. Each of the files
152 in the colon separated FILELIST is read sequentially by rpm for
153 macro definitions. Only the first file in the list must exist,
154 and tildes will be expanded to the value of $HOME. The default
155 FILELIST is /usr/lib/rpm/macros:/usr/lib/rpm/macros.d/macros.*:
156 /usr/lib/rpm/platform/%{_target}/macros:/usr/lib/rpm/fileattrs/
157 *.attr:/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/macros:/etc/rpm/macros.*:/etc/rpm/
158 macros:/etc/rpm/%{_target}/macros:~/.rpmmacros
159 --pipe CMD
162 Pipes the output of rpm to the command CMD.
163 --dbpath DIRECTORY
165 Use the database in DIRECTORY rather than the default path
166 /var/lib/rpm
167 --root DIRECTORY
169 Use the file system tree rooted at DIRECTORY for all operations.
170 Note that this means the database within DIRECTORY will be used
171 for dependency checks and any scriptlet(s) (e.g. %post if
172 installing, or %prep if building, a package) will be run after a
173 chroot(2) to DIRECTORY.
174 -D, --define='MACRO EXPR'
176 Defines MACRO with value EXPR.
177 --undefine='MACRO'
179 Undefines MACRO.
180 -E, --eval='EXPR'
182 Prints macro expansion of EXPR.
183 More - less often needed - options can be found on the rpm-misc(8) man
186 page.
187 INSTALL AND UPGRADE OPTIONS
189 In these options, PACKAGE_FILE can be either rpm binary file or ASCII
190 package manifest (see PACKAGE SELECTION OPTIONS), and may be specified
191 as an ftp or http URL, in which case the package will be downloaded
192 before being installed. See FTP/HTTP OPTIONS for information on rpm's
193 ftp and http client support.
194 The general form of an rpm install command is
196 rpm {-i|--install} [install-options] PACKAGE_FILE ...
198 This installs a new package.
200 The general form of an rpm upgrade command is
202 rpm {-U|--upgrade} [install-options] PACKAGE_FILE ...
204 This upgrades or installs the package currently installed to a newer
206 version. This is the same as install, except all other version(s) of
207 the package are removed after the new package is installed.
208 rpm {-F|--freshen} [install-options] PACKAGE_FILE ...
210 This will upgrade packages, but only ones for which an earlier version
212 is installed.
213 The general form of an rpm reinstall command is
215 rpm {--reinstall} [install-options] PACKAGE_FILE ...
217 This reinstalls a previously installed package.
219 --allfiles
221 Installs or upgrades all the missingok files in the package,
222 regardless if they exist.
223 --badreloc
225 Used with --relocate, permit relocations on all file paths, not
226 just those OLDPATH's included in the binary package relocation
227 hint(s).
228 --excludepath OLDPATH
230 Don't install files whose name begins with OLDPATH.
231 --excludedocs
233 Don't install any files which are marked as documentation (which
234 includes man pages and texinfo documents).
235 --force
237 Same as using --replacepkgs, --replacefiles, and --oldpackage.
238 -h, --hash
240 Print 50 hash marks as the package archive is unpacked. Use
241 with -v|--verbose for a nicer display.
242 --ignoresize
244 Don't check mount file systems for sufficient disk space before
245 installing this package.
246 --ignorearch
248 Allow installation or upgrading even if the architectures of the
249 binary package and host don't match.
250 --ignoreos
252 Allow installation or upgrading even if the operating systems of
253 the binary package and host don't match.
254 --includedocs
256 Install documentation files. This is the default behavior.
257 --justdb
259 Update only the database, not the filesystem.
260 --nodigest
262 Don't verify package or header digests when reading.
263 --nomanifest
265 Don't process non-package files as manifests.
266 --nosignature
268 Don't verify package or header signatures when reading.
269 --nodeps
271 Don't do a dependency check before installing or upgrading a
272 package.
273 --nocaps
275 Don't set file capabilities.
276 --noorder
278 Don't reorder the packages for an install. The list of packages
279 would normally be reordered to satisfy dependencies.
280 --noverify
282 Don't perform verify package files prior to installation.
283 --noplugins
285 Do not load and execute plugins.
286 --noscripts, --nopre, --nopost, --nopreun, --nopostun, --nopretrans,
288 --noposttrans
289 Don't execute the scriptlet of the same name. The --noscripts
290 option is equivalent to
291 --nopre --nopost --nopreun --nopostun --nopretrans --noposttrans
293 and turns off the execution of the corresponding %pre, %post,
295 %preun, %postun %pretrans, and %posttrans scriptlet(s).
296 --notriggers, --notriggerin, --notriggerun, --notriggerprein, --notrig‐
299 gerpostun
300 Don't execute any trigger scriptlet of the named type. The
301 --notriggers option is equivalent to
302 --notriggerprein --notriggerin --notriggerun --notriggerpostun
304 and turns off execution of the corresponding %triggerprein,
306 %triggerin, %triggerun, and %triggerpostun scriptlet(s).
307 --oldpackage
309 Allow an upgrade to replace a newer package with an older one.
310 --percent
312 Print percentages as files are unpacked from the package ar‐
313 chive. This is intended to make rpm easy to run from other
314 tools.
315 --prefix NEWPATH
317 For relocatable binary packages, translate all file paths that
318 start with the installation prefix in the package relocation
319 hint(s) to NEWPATH.
320 --relocate OLDPATH=NEWPATH
322 For relocatable binary packages, translate all file paths that
323 start with OLDPATH in the package relocation hint(s) to NEWPATH.
324 This option can be used repeatedly if several OLDPATH's in the
325 package are to be relocated.
326 --replacefiles
328 Install the packages even if they replace files from other,
329 already installed, packages.
330 --replacepkgs
332 Install the packages even if some of them are already installed
333 on this system.
334 --test Do not install the package, simply check for and report poten‐
336 tial conflicts.
337 ERASE OPTIONS
339 The general form of an rpm erase command is
340 rpm {-e|--erase} [--allmatches] [--justdb] [--nodeps] [--noscripts]
342 [--notriggers] [--test] PACKAGE_NAME ...
343 The following options may also be used:
346 --allmatches
348 Remove all versions of the package which match PACKAGE_NAME.
349 Normally an error is issued if PACKAGE_NAME matches multiple
350 packages.
351 --justdb
353 Update only the database, not the filesystem.
354 --nodeps
356 Don't check dependencies before uninstalling the packages.
357 --noscripts, --nopreun, --nopostun
359 Don't execute the scriptlet of the same name. The --noscripts
360 option during package erase is equivalent to
361 --nopreun --nopostun
363 and turns off the execution of the corresponding %preun, and
365 %postun scriptlet(s).
366 --notriggers, --notriggerun, --notriggerpostun
368 Don't execute any trigger scriptlet of the named type. The
369 --notriggers option is equivalent to
370 --notriggerun --notriggerpostun
372 and turns off execution of the corresponding %triggerun, and
374 %triggerpostun scriptlet(s).
375 --test Don't really uninstall anything, just go through the motions.
377 Useful in conjunction with the -vv option for debugging.
378 QUERY OPTIONS
380 The general form of an rpm query command is
381 rpm {-q|--query} [select-options] [query-options]
383 You may specify the format that package information should be printed
386 in. To do this, you use the
387 --qf|--queryformat QUERYFMT
389 option, followed by the QUERYFMT format string. Query formats are mod‐
391 ified versions of the standard printf(3) formatting. The format is made
392 up of static strings (which may include standard C character escapes
393 for newlines, tabs, and other special characters) and printf(3) type
394 formatters. As rpm already knows the type to print, the type specifier
395 must be omitted however, and replaced by the name of the header tag to
396 be printed, enclosed by {} characters. Tag names are case insensitive,
397 and the leading RPMTAG_ portion of the tag name may be omitted as well.
398 Alternate output formats may be requested by following the tag with
400 :typetag. Currently, the following types are supported:
401 :armor Wrap a public key in ASCII armor.
403 :arraysize
405 Display number of elements in array tags.
406 :base64
408 Encode binary data using base64.
409 :date Use strftime(3) "%c" format.
411 :day Use strftime(3) "%a %b %d %Y" format.
413 :depflags
415 Format dependency comparison operator.
416 :deptype
418 Format dependency type.
419 :expand
421 Perform macro expansion.
422 :fflags
424 Format file flags.
425 :fstate
427 Format file state.
428 :fstatus
430 Format file verify status.
431 :hex Format in hexadecimal.
433 :octal Format in octal.
435 :humaniec
437 Human readable number (in IEC 80000). The suffix K = 1024, M =
438 1048576, ...
439 :humansi
441 Human readable number (in SI). The suffix K = 1000, M = 1000000,
442 ...
443 :perms Format file permissions.
445 :pgpsig
447 Display signature fingerprint and time.
448 :shescape
450 Escape single quotes for use in a script.
451 :string
453 Display string format. (default)
454 :triggertype
456 Display trigger suffix.
457 :vflags
459 File verification flags.
460 :xml Wrap data in simple xml markup.
462 For example, to print only the names of the packages queried, you could
464 use %{NAME} as the format string. To print the packages name and dis‐
465 tribution information in two columns, you could use %-30{NAME}%{DISTRI‐
466 BUTION}. rpm will print a list of all of the tags it knows about when
467 it is invoked with the --querytags argument.
468 There are three subsets of options for querying: package selection,
470 file selection and information selection.
471 PACKAGE SELECTION OPTIONS:
473 PACKAGE_NAME
474 Query installed package named PACKAGE_NAME. To specify the pack‐
475 age more precisely the package name may be followed by the ver‐
476 sion or version and release both separated by a dash or an
477 architecture name separated by a dot. See the output of rpm -qa
478 or rpm -qp PACKAGE_FILE as an example.
479 -a, --all [SELECTOR]
482 Query all installed packages.
483 An optional SELECTOR in the form of tag=pattern can be provided
485 to narrow the selection, for example name="b*" to query packages
486 whose name starts with "b".
487 --dupes
489 List duplicated packages.
490 -f, --file FILE
492 Query package owning FILE.
493 --filecaps
495 List file names with POSIX1.e capabilities.
496 --fileclass
498 List file names with their classes (libmagic classification).
499 --filecolor
501 List file names with their colors (0 for noarch, 1 for 32bit, 2
502 for 64 bit).
503 --fileprovide
505 List file names with their provides.
506 --filerequire
508 List file names with their requires.
509 -g, --group GROUP
511 Query packages with the group of GROUP.
512 --hdrid SHA1
514 Query package that contains a given header identifier, i.e. the
515 SHA1 digest of the immutable header region.
516 -p, --package PACKAGE_FILE
518 Query an (uninstalled) package PACKAGE_FILE. The PACKAGE_FILE
519 may be specified as an ftp or http style URL, in which case the
520 package header will be downloaded and queried. See FTP/HTTP
521 OPTIONS for information on rpm's ftp and http client support.
522 The PACKAGE_FILE argument(s), if not a binary package, will be
523 interpreted as an ASCII package manifest unless --nomanifest
524 option is used. In manifests, comments are permitted, starting
525 with a '#', and each line of a package manifest file may include
526 white space separated glob expressions, including URL's, that
527 will be expanded to paths that are substituted in place of the
528 package manifest as additional PACKAGE_FILE arguments to the
529 query.
530 --pkgid MD5
532 Query package that contains a given package identifier, i.e. the
533 MD5 digest of the combined header and payload contents.
534 --querybynumber HDRNUM
536 Query the HDRNUMth database entry directly; this is useful only
537 for debugging.
538 --specfile SPECFILE
540 Parse and query SPECFILE as if it were a package. Although not
541 all the information (e.g. file lists) is available, this type of
542 query permits rpm to be used to extract information from spec
543 files without having to write a specfile parser.
544 --tid TID
546 Query package(s) that have a given TID transaction identifier. A
547 unix time stamp is currently used as a transaction identifier.
548 All package(s) installed or erased within a single transaction
549 have a common identifier.
550 --triggeredby PACKAGE_NAME
552 Query packages that are triggered by package(s) PACKAGE_NAME.
553 --whatobsoletes CAPABILITY
555 Query all packages that obsolete CAPABILITY for proper function‐
556 ing.
557 --whatprovides CAPABILITY
559 Query all packages that provide the CAPABILITY capability.
560 --whatrequires CAPABILITY
562 Query all packages that require CAPABILITY for proper function‐
563 ing.
564 --whatconflicts CAPABILITY
566 Query all packages that conflict with CAPABILITY.
567 --whatrecommends CAPABILITY
569 Query all packages that recommend CAPABILITY.
570 --whatsuggests CAPABILITY
572 Query all packages that suggest CAPABILITY.
573 --whatsupplements CAPABILITY
575 Query all packages that supplement CAPABILITY.
576 --whatenhances CAPABILITY
578 Query all packages that enhance CAPABILITY.
579 PACKAGE QUERY OPTIONS:
581 --changelog
582 Display change information for the package.
583 --changes
585 Display change information for the package with full time
586 stamps.
587 --conflicts
589 List capabilities this package conflicts with.
590 --dump Dump file information as follows (implies -l):
592 path size mtime digest mode owner group isconfig isdoc rdev symlink
595 --enhances
598 List capabilities enhanced by package(s)
599 --filesbypkg
601 List all the files in each selected package.
602 --filetriggers
604 List filetrigger scriptlets from package(s).
605 -i, --info
607 Display package information, including name, version, and
608 description. This uses the --queryformat if one was specified.
609 --last Orders the package listing by install time such that the latest
611 packages are at the top.
612 -l, --list
614 List files in package.
615 --obsoletes
617 List packages this package obsoletes.
618 --provides
620 List capabilities this package provides.
621 --recommends
623 List capabilities recommended by package(s)
624 -R, --requires
626 List capabilities on which this package depends.
627 --suggests
629 List capabilities suggested by package(s)
630 --supplements

633 --scripts
635 List the package specific scriptlet(s) that are used as part of
636 the installation and uninstallation processes.
637 -s, --state
639 Display the states of files in the package (implies -l). The
640 state of each file is one of normal, not installed, or replaced.
641 --triggers, --triggerscripts
643 Display the trigger scripts, if any, which are contained in the
644 package. --xml Format package headers as XML.
645 FILE SELECTION OPTIONS:
648 -A, --artifactfiles
649 Only include artifact files (implies -l).
650 -c, --configfiles
652 Only include configuration files (implies -l).
653 -d, --docfiles
655 Only include documentation files (implies -l).
656 -L, --licensefiles
658 Only include license files (implies -l).
659 --noartifact
661 Exclude artifact files.
662 --noconfig
664 Exclude config files.
665 --noghost
667 Exclude ghost files.
668 VERIFY OPTIONS
671 The general form of an rpm verify command is
672 rpm {-V|--verify} [select-options] [verify-options]
674 Verifying a package compares information about the installed files in
677 the package with information about the files taken from the package
678 metadata stored in the rpm database. Among other things, verifying
679 compares the size, digest, permissions, type, owner and group of each
680 file. Any discrepancies are displayed. Files that were not installed
681 from the package, for example, documentation files excluded on instal‐
682 lation using the "--excludedocs" option, will be silently ignored.
683 The package and file selection options are the same as for package
685 querying (including package manifest files as arguments). Other
686 options unique to verify mode are:
687 --nodeps
689 Don't verify dependencies of packages.
690 --nodigest
692 Don't verify package or header digests when reading.
693 --nofiles
695 Don't verify any attributes of package files.
696 --noscripts
698 Don't execute the %verifyscript scriptlet (if any).
699 --nosignature
701 Don't verify package or header signatures when reading.
702 --nolinkto
704 --nofiledigest (formerly --nomd5)
706 --nosize
708 --nouser
710 --nogroup
712 --nomtime
714 --nomode
716 --nordev
718 Don't verify the corresponding file attribute.
719 --nocaps
721 Don't verify file capabilities.
722 The format of the output is a string of 9 characters, a possible
724 attribute marker:
725 c %config configuration file.
727 d %doc documentation file.
728 g %ghost file (i.e. the file contents are not included in the package payload).
729 l %license license file.
730 r %readme readme file.
731 from the package header, followed by the file name. Each of the 9
733 characters denotes the result of a comparison of attribute(s) of the
734 file to the value of those attribute(s) recorded in the database. A
735 single "." (period) means the test passed, while a single "?" (question
736 mark) indicates the test could not be performed (e.g. file permissions
737 prevent reading). Otherwise, the (mnemonically emBoldened) character
738 denotes failure of the corresponding --verify test:
739 S file Size differs
741 M Mode differs (includes permissions and file type)
742 5 digest (formerly MD5 sum) differs
743 D Device major/minor number mismatch
744 L readL[22mink(2) path mismatch
745 U User ownership differs
746 G Group ownership differs
747 T mTime differs
748 P caPabilities differ
749 MISCELLANEOUS COMMANDS
752 rpm --showrc
753 shows the values rpm will use for all of the options are cur‐
754 rently set in rpmrc and macros configuration file(s).
755 rpm --setperms PACKAGE_NAME
757 sets permissions of files in the given package. Consider using
758 --restore instead.
759 rpm --setugids PACKAGE_NAME
761 sets user/group ownership of files in the given package. This
762 command can change permissions and capabilities of files in that
763 package. In most cases it is better to use --restore instead.
764 rpm --setcaps PACKAGE_NAME
766 sets capabilities of files in the given package. Consider using
767 --restore instead.
768 rpm --restore PACKAGE_NAME
770 The option restores owner, group, permissions and capabilities
771 of files in the given package.
772 Options --setperms, --setugids, --setcaps and
774 --restore are mutually exclusive.
775 FTP/HTTP OPTIONS
778 rpm can act as an FTP and/or HTTP client so that packages can be
779 queried or installed from the internet. Package files for install,
780 upgrade, and query operations may be specified as an ftp or http style
