When using up2date, I notice that there are two files downloaded for each update: a .rpm file and a .hdr file.

What is the purpose of the .hdr file?

If I want to save on CD all the updates that I have applied to my system since I installed Fedora Core 1 that are now in /var/spool/up2date, do I need include the .hdr files or just the .rpm files?
