Guys recently I had this question asked in a technical interview. How do I find out the package owning a particular file, when no package managers are installed? I am assuimg SRPMs are used to install the software? Is this actually possible? Install the Linux OS without a package manager? I know "rpm -qf filename" gives the package owning the file. But how to get the package name when I don't have any package manager? Maybe this was a question to rattle me? -- Prasad Pillarisetti "If everything is coming your way, then you are in the wrong lane" -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
