hello dude
u can check by use of the command "rpm -qa packagename"
if u used fedora core or red hat then rpm is okay.
rpm = redhat package manager.
if you have another distro then lemme know.
packagename = mozilla/firefox/vsfted anythig u want to check the version of any package.
If it's already installed then it will give the ouptput like this
Ex : ftp-2.1.3.5
first check this if it will be okay................. but still u not able to show the version then let me know....
I'll give u the solution.
cheers

rpm -qa won't tell you where it's installed. If you mean the mozilla binary, type
The which command tells you where a command will be executed from in your path if you just type "mozilla"Code:which mozilla
If you want to know where related files are installed and you are using rpm, the command is similar to the one above, except it's
Code:rpm -ql mozilla

I'm not sure if you're asking a question or making a statement. The concept of a single "installation directory" isn't valid for most applications in linux. There are libraries, configurations, and binaries that may be stored across different locations on the system. The "which" command takes a look at its argument and tells you from "which" location it would be executed. This is good for determining where a binary might be located. rpm -ql will list all files associated with a package installed via rpm.
