Hi,

i want to check, whether i have Tar.pm installed on my system. This must have been happened via yum - so rpm.

yum provides is extremly slow on this machine, so i would like to check this with rpm. So how can i find out, whick rpm-package is providing Tar .pm?

rpm -qf $(which tar)

Actually, as he wanted to find the owner of Tar.pm, rather than tar itself...

rpm -qf $(locate Tar.pm)

Dave...

Assuming Tar.pm is properly installed in your perl module tree:

$ rpm -qf `find /usr/lib/perl5 -name Tar.pm -print`

Paul.

Thanks to all, i found it out Roger

What about: rpm -q --whatprovides Tar.pm

You must either provide the full pathname to Tar.pm or substitute a command that will provide the full pathname for this to work:

rpm -q --whatprovides Tar.pm no package provides Tar.pm

rpm -q --whatprovides /usr/lib/perl5/..../Tar.pm perl-Archive-Tar-1.08-3

rpm -q --whatprovides `locate Tar.pm` perl-Archive-Tar-1.08-3
