Hi,
I've been trying to get rpm to give me a formatted list of dependencies
for a list of packages. I've been trying something like:
rpm -q -a | grep ghost | xargs rpm -q --queryformat \
"%-30{NAME} %{REQUIRENAME}\n"
but this only lists the first dependency in each case. Can you tell me how
to specify in the format how to deal with tags returning multiple words,
as I can't seem to find appropriate instructions in the man page?
Thanks,
Chris.
