    Does anyone know of a command in Red Hat based Linux distros that lists software with a version number in a user friendly format?
    I am aware that I can use
    Code:
    rpm -qa
    But the output is like
    Code:
    bind-libs-9.3.6-4.P1.el5_4.2
    And I would like it to output more like Debian's method of:
    Code:
    dpkg -l
    Which shows up as:
    Code:
    ii  python-telepathy       0.15.11-1     Python language bindings for telepathy
    Any help would be appreciated!

    I actually found a way myself... You can use yum as so:
    Code:
    yum list installed
    And the output looks like:
    Code:
    zsh.i386          4.2.6-3.el5         installed
