As already mentioned, "rpm -qa" will list all installed packages. You can 
grep on the package name you're interested in or redirect the output to a 
file for perusing later. If you want more detail, add -i which will give more 
info on each of the packages. Or use -qail which will list info and all the 
files each package installs. There are other options, those are the ones I 
use most often.
