Basic question regarding rpm naming convention.

Hi Guys,

Where would i find the list of distribution codes.
For example.

samba-32bit-3.4.2 -1.1.3.1.x8664.rpm

In above rpm file it is indicated that its release is 1.1.3.1 .

The rpm is meant to be run for opensuse.

Where would i get the linking of release number and distribution.

In simple words How would i guess distribution by merely looking at rpm name?

the distribution does not depend on the release of the rpm.. you can install all the rpms that you want despite your distro

The file name isn't fixed to a certain scheme for all distributions. For example, Fedora appends the distribution version it's built for to every RPM. My best guess would be checking the output of rpm -qip <file>
