See the query format in the man page

rpm --queryformat "%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}-%{ARCH}\n"  -qa 

is part of one of my aliases; I'm guessing if you leave of VERSION,
RELEASE, and ARCH you'll be in downtown.

\_ Yes, I spent an hour in the man page and typing, and I got
\_ nowhere.
\_ 
\_ What I want is a list of packages installed without
\_ version numbers - like rpm -qa.
\_ 
\_ I know it has to be easy, but that man page is not.
