You can list the files provided by the rpm package by using the following command:

rpm -ql packagename | less

rpm -ql packagename | less
this command works for a package already installed.

Otherwise it's :
rpm -qlp packagename.rpm | less

I thought it was obvious from my last post that its a package for Fedora Core You install packages using yum e.g.
Code:
#yum install compat-libstdc++-33
