What files are in a RPM package?

Q. How do I find out what files are in RPM package called gnupg?

A. You can use rpm command itself to list the files inside a RPM package. rpm is a powerful Package Manager, which can be used to build, install, query, verify, update, and erase individual software packages. A package consists of an archive of files and meta-data used to install and erase the archive files.

Use following syntax to list the files for already INSTALLED package:
rpm -ql package-name

Use following syntax to list the files for RPM package:
rpm -qlp package.rpm
Type the following command to list the files for gnupg rpm package:
$ rpm -qlp rpm -qlp gnupg-1.4.5-1.i386.rpm
Output:

/usr/bin/gpg
