Issue:
How do I check when RPM packages were installed on my machine?
Resolution:
You can use the following command to display the install date and time of all the packages installed on your system:
If you have a vague idea of the package name pipe (pipe is | key) the output of the above command through
grep and use a substring that would be in the package name.
For example, to search for packages containing the substring "kernel".
Quote:
|
rpm -qa --last | grep kernel
|
(Returns the install date and time for all packages with kernel in their name, such as the kernel, kernel-utils, etc.)
If you know the exact name for the package, you can modify the command and specify the package name. For example:
(Returns the install date and time of the filesystem package)
