2. What does rpm –Uvh package.rpm do?

man rpm

-U upgrades or installs a package to a newer version AND removes all other versions
-v gives you the output as the command is working
-h makes the display tidier by putting progress markers as the package is unpacked.

this sounds like homework for a red hat class
please read the rpm man page

Code:

man rpm
