[SOLVED] Where can i find the ".rpm" files?

Hi,

I have pre-installed RPMs on my machine. When i run rpm -qa it lists hundreds of RPMs. I want to find the location of the associated ".rpm" files.

For example:

#rpm -qa | grep sed
sed-4.1.5-8.el5

For the above version of sed, i want to find the location of the associated ".rpm" file - sed-4.1.5-5.fc6.i386.rpm

Can someone please tell me the command or location where I can find the corresponding .rpm files?

Thanks,
Sushma_r

they aren't on your system, they are on your installation media or online repositories
