Is there a rpmtag to show the name of the file (or rpm) being used to
get a specific answer:
like:
rpm -qf /usr/bin/{cp,rm,ln}, right now gives:
coreutils-8.23-2.3.2.x86_64
coreutils-8.23-2.3.2.x86_64
coreutils-8.23-2.3.2.x86_64
But no sign of what goes with what other than by hoping for a 1:1
correspondence
Is there a switch or querytag that can give the corresponding file on
the output line. A behavior similar to grep would also help:
grep of one file:
> grep "hi there" 1
hi there
grep of more than one:
> grep "hi there" *
1:hi there
2:hi there
3:hi there
In a moderate sized (~3250 files) directory, a wildcard used with rpm
took: 2.20sec 1.73usr 0.47sys (99.98% cpu)).
In the same directory doing the queries 1/file took:
67.98sec 47.48usr 20.92sys (100.62% cpu)
Thanks!
