Strong hint: Check out the Guide Tour in bugzilla, which explains it:

Even better, you can join -qi and -qf to "rpm -qif /path/to/file" and
then pipe it to "grep":
$ rpm -qif /usr/bin/amuFormat.sh | grep Source
Group : Applications/System Source RPM: mtools-4.0.10-1.fc11.src.rpm
On the other hand, plain -qf together with --queryformat (or short --qf)
is superior (make it a bash alias if you like):
$ rpm -qf /usr/bin/amuFormat.sh --queryformat %{sourcerpm}\\n
mtools-4.0.10-1.fc11.src.rpm
