    RPM list

    Is there a way to see what rpms were installed after a particular date?

    Currently I'm using rpm -qa. Now this gives me a list of packages, but I want to find out the ones installed after a particular date. Is there anyway I can do this?

    I'm trying to build a virtual server from scratch, modelling it on an existing server. I need to know the exact packages installed after the installation date.

    Of course this is proving to be quite difficult as all the packages installed on the original server are quite old, and it's hard to find the packages anymore.

    I'm using redhat es 4.

    This command
    Code:
    rpm -qa --last | less
    shows all the rpms installed including the installation date.

    This is good, but it shows the latest rpm first. I want in date order. I can't remember how you do this.
