Actual exam question for Lpi's 101-500 exam
Question #: 231
Topic #: 1
Which of the following commands lists all currently installed packages when using RPM package management?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

The command that lists all currently installed packages when using RPM package management is rpm -- query --all. This command displays information about all the packages that are currently installed on the system, including their name, version, release, and architecture1. The output can be customized by using various query options and format specifiers2.
The other commands are either invalid or related to YUM, not RPM. yum --query --all is not a valid YUM command, as YUM does not have a --query option3. yum --list --installed is a valid YUM command, but it lists the packages from the YUM repositories, not the RPM database3. rpm --list --installed is not a valid RPM command, as RPM does not have a --list option2.
