Hi, I have a query RE rpm (RH6.1)

if do
        rpm -q foopackge.rpm

I get package.rpm is not installed
if i do

        rpm -vhi foopackge.rpm

I get :

        foopackage ######################################

then :
        rpm -q foopackge.rpm

I get package.rpm is not installed.

If I then try :
        rpm -vhi foopackge.rpm

I get package already installed..
I tried rpm --rebuilddb but it didn't make a difference.
Anyone know whats going on?
