Why is it that after running "rpm -q *" as root I get.
package Public is not installed [...]
That's because the shell expands the * wildcard to all files in the folder, i.e. like doing 'rpm -q $(ls *)'. So you have to either escape the character 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'.
