Is there any reason why using bash --version is different than rpm -q bash command? I bring this up as an alarm that is on the redhat forums so I would imagine somebody knows about this or perhaps I have been misguided from the forum. Thanks.
[root@mail ~]# rpm -q bash
bash-3.2-33.el5_10.4
[root@mail ~]# bash --version
GNU bash, version 3.2.25(1)-release (i386-redhat-linux-gnu)
