OK so if I have file /var/foobar on my box I can do
rpm -qf /var/foobar
to find what package the file came from
But if rpm tell me failed dependencies x y z
What is the best way of finding out which rpm contains them.
Is rpmfind.net the only way ? Is there any other resource , app that is
helpful
I'm an rpm novice so excuse me if I ask something stupid . I will read the
RPM howto later :-)
Thanks
