How to query non installed rpm file and only package name and version?
I have two different versions of rpm files(1.1.rpm, 2.1.rpm), so here i need to query the rpm and save the output in a text file (1.1.txt , 2.1.txt)and i need to compare both the txt file and show the difference in tabular column.
for eg:
Pkg Name | 1.1.txt | 2.1.txt
-------------------------------+---------------------------+---------------------------
qq | 3.4.4. | 3.5.5
rr | 1.18.1 | 1.18.1
I tried this cmd for query
rpm -qplv file* > 1.1.txt
any idea how to do this?

To obtain the name and version from an rpm package, you use the base rpm -qp along with the --queryformat option specifying the %{NAME} and %{VERSION} format specifiers. You can include the field-width modifiers (in the same manner as C printf) to provide formatting. You also want to redirect stderr to /dev/null to ignore any rpm signature errors.
For example, to list the name and version for all rpm packages in the current directory:
Example rpms:
$ l1 *.rpm
athena-jot-9.0-4.1.x86_64.rpm
freetype2-devel-32bit-2.6.3-5.1.x86_64.rpm
ft2demos-2.6.3-5.1.x86_64.rpm
gtkwrite-0.1.2-2.1.x86_64.rpm
libfreetype6-32bit-2.6.3-5.1.x86_64.rpm
Running the command on those loose rpms provides:
$ rpm -qp --queryformat "%-24{NAME}%15{VERSION}n" *.rpm 2>/dev/null
athena-jot 9.0
freetype2-devel-32bit 2.6.3
ft2demos 2.6.3
gtkwrite 0.1.2
libfreetype6-32bit 2.6.3
To write it to your 1.1.txt file, just redirect the output, e.g.
$ rpm -qp --queryformat "%-24{NAME}%15{VERSION}n" *.rpm 2>/dev/null > ~/tmp/1.1.txt
$ cat ~/tmp/1.1.txt
athena-jot 9.0
freetype2-devel-32bit 2.6.3
ft2demos 2.6.3
gtkwrite 0.1.2

nice one, but here i did not install the rpm, so when i use this command it just print that rpm name and its version, not for the packages inside the rpm.

No need to install, you are-qpquerying the package. They are just a list of rpms I have in a directory that I used for the example.
