Just type "rpm -q <package name>". Incidentally, the RPM spec states that
the version of a package is defined by the version embedded in the
package, not the filename. The version being placed in the filename (or
the package name, for that matter) of the package is only a naming
convention.
If you're not sure sure of the exact name of the package (as far as I
know, the standard rpm binary doesn't support pattern matching on package
names), you run the output of "rpm -qa" through grep. The -qa option
lists all packages installed.
