Jack,

Thanks for the great idea.  I was playing with this and came up with:

#!/bin/sh

rpm -qa --qf '%-20.20{VENDOR} :: %{NAME}-%{VERSION}.%{ARCH} 
%{SUMMARY}\n%{DESCRIPTION}
==================================================\n\n' > /tmp/rpm.list

Now, I want to get the install date in there as well.  The
%{INSTALLTIME} tag returns the unix format date string.  According to
the man-page, the special tag 'date' is understood if followed by
':tagtype' but I'm not getting the right syntax.

How can I extract mm/dd/yyyy from the tag, INSTALLTIME?

Regards,
Gregg
