Hi,

This may be of some help from the cmd line guide in the Tut's section:

To see if a package is installed: rpm -q [packagename]
ex. rpm -q somepackage
Rpm –q webadmin
================================================

To get info on an installed package: rpm -qi [packagename]
ex. rpm -qi somepackage

If this is not what your looking for let us know because its a good question.

Hiya!

Ok, here is a collection of URL's that should prove useful for learning apt-get for RH, and should also answer your question:

Keeping your system upto date with apt-get:

Graphical Apt-Get (not sure if you will have this in RH):
http://packages.debian.org/stable/admin/gnome-apt.html

Should answer your original question:
