RPM (Red Hat Package Manager) is the package format used by Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), Fedora, CentOS, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux, openSUSE, and many other Linux distributions. An RPM file contains a header with metadata (package name, version, architecture, dependencies, description, and installation scripts) followed by a CPIO archive (often compressed with gzip or XZ) containing the actual files to be installed. RPM was developed by Red Hat in 1997.
RPM packages support pre-installation and post-installation scripts written in shell or Lua, package dependencies and conflicts resolution, digital signatures using GPG for package integrity verification, and file triggers. The DNF (Dandified YUM) and YUM package managers use RPM as their package format. RPM packages are built from source RPMs (SRPMs) which contain the source code and build instructions. The rpm2cpio tool can extract RPM contents without installing.
RPM packages can be installed on RPM-based distributions with rpm -i package.rpm or dnf install ./package.rpm. On any system, rpm2cpio package.rpm | cpio -idmv extracts the package contents. 7-Zip on Windows can extract RPM files. On Debian-based systems, the alien tool can convert RPM to DEB format. Converting RPM to ZIP or TAR extracts the installed files for examination on non-RPM systems.
RPM is a Linux package format containing software files and installation metadata. Converting RPM to ZIP or TAR extracts the application files for manual inspection or installation on systems without RPM support. LetsConvert can extract RPM package contents and convert them to standard archive formats for cross-platform access.
