Get the source, Luke....
No, actually that probably won't help. ;)
rpm --help should list it as an option.
It's an alias command and is in the file
/usr/lib/rpm/rpmpopt-{rpmversion}. Try locate rpmpopt.
It basically runs rpm -q --whatprovides on the rpmdb-redhat database, so
it doesn't rely on the database of installed packages.
Answering this actually made me realize what the problem is on Wolfgang's
machine. Details to follow. :)
