list of packages with license

Is there anyway to get names of all the packages on a system and their license types?

Yes:
To your terminal:

Code:

rpm -qa --queryformat "%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}.%{VENDOR}.%{License}\n"|sort -d|cat -b

To a file [packages.txt]

Code:

rpm -qa --queryformat "%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}.%{VENDOR}.%{License}\n"|sort -d|cat -b >> /home/username/packages.txt
