extracting rpm name and taking the backup of configuration file

Asked by rameshramph07 in Perl Programming Language, Red Hat Linux, RPM Installer

Tags: Red hat Linux, Perl

Below are the list of downloaded rpm's  using up2date command:

pcre-4.5-4.el4_6.6.i386.rpm
perl-5.8.5-36.el4_6.3.i386.rpm
popt-1.9.1-23_nonptl.i386.rpm
procps-3.2.3-8.9.el4_6.1.i386.rpm
pygtk2-2.4.0-2.el4.i386.rpm
pygtk2-libglade-2.4.0-2.el4.i386.rpm
python-2.3.4-14.4.el4_6.1.i386.rpm
qt-3.3.3-13.RHEL4.i386.rpm
redhat-release-4ES-7.i386.rpm
rhnlib-2.1.1-9.el4_6.noarch.rpm

I've download updates from RHN for RHEL 4 update 5 and now i want to update the Linux Box using the above downloaded rpm's , but before that i want to take back up of configuration files of those rpm's using Perl.

But now the issue is that when I'm trying rpm -qc redhat-release-4ES-7.i386.rpm it gives the error "package redhat-release-4ES-7.i386.rpm is not installed" , for this I've to try rpm -qc redhat-release , but I'm not able to extract it from the  above rpm's.


Please mention also how to take backup of conf files in the above scenario.Start Free Trial
