Fine. A script to do just that was posted here
some time ago, I am re-sending it:

[vlad@borg vlad]$ more rpmcontents
#!/bin/sh
# change the following to where _your_ rpms are
cd /shared/rpms/
for i in *;
do
        echo -------------
        echo $i
        rpm -qpi $i
        rpm -qpl $i
done > $HOME/download_packages.txt
# end

After running that one you will get a long list-file
that you can search by grep for keywords such as
"cd", "play" "audio" and whatever...
