[luau] rpm problem

[Vikram Khurana]

Thanks Ray,
The package is showing as installed. I didn't realize that I needed to
take off the i386 at the end of the package name

Note that -ql and -Uvh take slightly different arguments.  -Uvh takes a 
filename where -ql takes
a package name.  So if you do
rpm -Uvh foo-0.0.1.i386.rpm
then you would do
rpm -ql  foo-0.0.1
or
rpm -ql foo
if you only have one version of package foo installed.
