Determining the path that a yum package installed to

Question

I ve installed ffmpeg using yum under Redhat  and I m having difficulty figuring out where  what path  it installed the package to  Is there an easy way of determining this without resorting to finding it myself manually

User · Accepted Answer

yum uses RPM  so the following command will list the contents of the installed package     rpm -ql package-name

User · Answer

Not in Linux at the moment  so can t double check  but I think it s   rpm -ql ffmpeg   That should list all the files installed as part of the ffmpeg package

User · Answer

I don t know about yum  but rpm -ql will list the files in a particular  rpm file  If you can find the package file on your system you should be good to go
