Do .rpm files have metadata
They have lots of metadata. Use -qp to target the package file and –qf to specify which metadata you’re interested in. $ rpm -qp /var/cache/yum/x86_64/16/fedora/packages/db4-4.8.30-3.fc15.i686.rpm –qf “%{name}: %{buildhost}\n” db4: x86-10.phx2.fedoraproject.org rpm –querytags will show you the metadata tags.
