by prefixing it with \. But even then it won't work as rpm doesn't
understand wildcards. If you want to list all installed packes use 'rpm -qa'.

and "rpm -qa" *does* understand wildcards:

susi:~ # rpm -qa 'tex*'
texlive-bin-2009-15.1.x86_64
texlive-latex-2009-15.1.noarch
texinfo-4.13a-10.5.x86_64
texlive-bin-latex-2009-15.1.x86_64
texlive-2009-15.1.noarch

*much* better than the old pipe-n-grep way ;-)
