I have noticed that a lot of people use rpm -q --whatprovides <file> to figure out RPM a file belongs to. But isn't rpm -qf <file> more correct? (and quicker to type as well :-) )



rpm --help

-f, --file      query/verify package(s) owning file


--whatprovides query/verify the package(s) which provide a dependency
