You would learn about RPM and basic queries as covered by the "man rpm"
manual. For example, run
rpm -v fedora-release
in your favourite terminal. It should print the Name, Version, Release
and Arch of the fedora-release package. Version should be 14 for Fedora 14.
This would be just a first step at analyzing your package list. The
next step (once your repo config targets F-14) would be to check for
duplicates and orphans with the help of the package-cleanup command from
the yum-utils package.

Unimportant. Those name= fields are descriptive strings only.
