My results:

[Dave at localhost ~]$ rpm -qi pygpgme
package pygpgme is not installed
[Dave at localhost ~]$ rpm -qi python-iniparse
package python-iniparse is not installed
[Dave at localhost ~]$

Is there a way to tell rpm to go off and search a specific repo?  I 
tried rpm --whatprovides yum but that evidently is not acceptable!  (The 
joys of trying to learn a new system!  20 years ago, I had great battles 
with the hard copy manuals.......)

Thanks for your help

Dave
