NAME

6       rpmduplicates - find program with several version installed
7

DESCRIPTION

9       sometimes, the upgrade of a system will install new packages, and
10       "forget" to remove the older version. Rpmorphan do not work with this
11       kind of unused packages. Rpmduplicates is the answer. I recommend to
12       run it after each distribution upgrade (for example from fedora core 7
13       to 8).
