How To Check The List Of Packages Installed From Particular Repository?
If you would like to check the list of package installed from particular repository then you are in the right place to get it done.
Why we need this detail? It may helps you to isolate the installed packages list based on the repository.
Like, it’s coming from distribution official repository or these are coming from PPA or these are coming from other resources, etc.,
You may want to know what are the packages came from third party repositories to keep eye on those to avoid any damages on your system.
So many third party repositories and PPAs are available for Linux. These repositories are included set of packages which is not available in distribution repository due to some limitation.
It helps administrator to easily install some of the important packages which is not available in the distribution official repository. Installing third party repository on production system is not advisable as this may not properly maintained by the repository maintainer due to many reasons.
So, you have to decide whether you want to install or not. I can say, we can believe some of the third party repositories which is well maintained and suggested by Linux distributions like EPEL repository, Copr (Cool Other Package Repo), etc,.
If you would like to see the list of package was installed from the corresponding repo, use the following commands based on your distributions.
List of Major repositories and it’s details are below.
CentOS:EPEL, ELRepo, etc is CentOS Community Approved Repositories.Fedora:RPMfusion repo is commonly used by most of the Fedora users.ArchLinux:ArchLinux community repository contains packages that have been adopted by Trusted Users from the Arch User Repository.openSUSE:Packman repo offers various additional packages for openSUSE, especially but not limited to multimedia related applications and libraries that are on the openSUSE Build Service application blacklist. It’s the largest external repository of openSUSE packages.Ubuntu:Personal Package Archives (PPAs) are a kind of repository. Developers create them in order to distribute their software. You can find this information on the PPA’s Launchpad page. Also, you can enable Cananical partners repositories.
What Is Repository?
A software repository is a central place which stores the software packages for the particular application.
All the Linux distributions are maintaining their own repositories and they allow users to retrieve and install packages on their machine.
Each vendor offered a unique package management tool to manage their repositories such as search, install, update, upgrade, remove, etc.
Most of the Linux distributions comes as freeware except RHEL and SUSE. To access their repositories you need to buy a subscriptions.
How To Check The List Of Packages Installed From Particular Repository on RHEL/CentOS Systems?
This can be done in multiple ways. Here we will be giving you all the possible options and you can choose which one is best for you.
Method-1: Using Yum Command
RHEL & CentOS systems are using RPM packages hence we can use the Yum Package Manager to get this information.
YUM stands for Yellowdog Updater, Modified is an open-source command-line front-end package-management utility for RPM based systems such as Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) and CentOS.
Yum is the primary tool for getting, installing, deleting, querying, and managing RPM packages from distribution repositories, as well as other third-party repositories.
[[email protected] ~]# yum list installed | grep @epel
apachetop.x86_64 0.15.6-1.el7 @epel
aria2.x86_64 1.18.10-2.el7.1 @epel
atop.x86_64 2.3.0-8.el7 @epel
axel.x86_64 2.4-9.el7 @epel
epel-release.noarch 7-11 @epel
lighttpd.x86_64 1.4.50-1.el7 @epel
Alternatively, you can use the yum command with other option to get the same details like above.
# yum repo-pkgs epel list installed
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror

* epel: epel.mirror.constant.com
Installed Packages
apachetop.x86_64 0.15.6-1.el7 @epel
aria2.x86_64 1.18.10-2.el7.1 @epel
atop.x86_64 2.3.0-8.el7 @epel
axel.x86_64 2.4-9.el7 @epel
epel-release.noarch 7-11 @epel
lighttpd.x86_64 1.4.50-1.el7 @epel
Method-2: Using Yumdb Command
Yumdb info provides information similar to yum info but additionally it provides package checksum data, type, user info (who installed the package). Since yum 3.2.26 yum has started storing additional information outside of the rpmdatabase (where user indicates it was installed by the user, and dep means it was brought in as a dependency).
# yumdb search from_repo epel* |egrep -v '(from_repo|^$)'
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
apachetop-0.15.6-1.el7.x86_64
aria2-1.18.10-2.el7.1.x86_64
atop-2.3.0-8.el7.x86_64
axel-2.4-9.el7.x86_64
epel-release-7-11.noarch
lighttpd-1.4.50-1.el7.x86_64
Method-3: Using Repoquery Command
repoquery is a program for querying information from YUM repositories similarly to rpm queries.
# repoquery -a --installed --qf "%{ui_from_repo} %{name}" | grep '^@epel'
@epel apachetop
@epel aria2
@epel atop
@epel axel
@epel epel-release
@epel lighttpd
