[Gluster-users] Problem with Gluster's LATEST RPM Builds

[Greg_Swift at aotx.uscourts.gov]

Best way to check the actual contents of the rpm is to query the rpm's meta
data.

# rpm -query --queryformat '%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-%{arch}\n'
--package glusterfs-core-3.2.4-1.x86_64.rpm
should return:
glusterfs-core-3.2.4-1.x86_64

Shorter equivalent:
# rpm --qf '%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-%{arch}\n' -qp
glusterfs-core-3.2.4-1.x86_64.rpm
should return:
glusterfs-core-3.2.4-1.x86_64

Check just the arch (not useful w/ multiple packages):
# rpm --qf '%{arch}\n' -qp glusterfs-core-3.2.4-1.x86_64.rpm
should return:
x86_64
