Thank you for the response, fpmurphy. Regardless of the compatibility, how do I copy it? I read the man pages for rpm and I tried to find the RPM by name, but I cannot locate the RPM in order to copy it. Is there an rpm flag for copying or installing to another machine?
Thanks,

OPTIONS
-h, --help
Display a help message, and then quit.
-c CONFIG, --config=CONFIG
Config file to use (defaults to /etc/yum.conf).
-a ARCH, --arch=ARCH
Act as if running the specified arch (default: current arch, note: does not override $releasever. x86_64 is a superset for i*86.).
--source
Also download .src.rpm files.
-r REPOID, --repoid=REPOID
Specify repo ids to query, can be specified multiple times (default is all enabled).
-t, --tempcache
Use a temp dir for storing/accessing yum-cache.
-p DESTDIR, --download_path=DESTDIR
Path to download packages to: defaults to current directory.
-g, --gpgcheck
Remove packages that fail GPG signature checking after downloading. exit status is '1' if at least one package was removed.
-u, --urls
Just list urls of what would be downloaded, don't download.
-l, --plugins
Enable yum plugin support.
-n, --newest-only
Download only newest packages per-repo.
-q, --quiet
Output as little information as possible.
EXAMPLES
Sync all packages from the 'updates' repo to the current directory:
reposync --repoid=updates
Sync only the newest packages from the 'updates' repo to the current directory:
reposync -n --repoid=updates
Sync packages from the 'updates' and 'extras' repos to the current directory:
reposync --repoid=updates --repoid=extras
Sync all packages from the 'updates' repo to the repos directory:
reposync -p repos --repoid=updates
Sync all packages from the 'updates' repo to the repos directory excluding x86_64 arch. Edit /etc/yum.conf adding option exclude=*.x86_64.
Then:
reposync -p repos --repoid=updates

reposync uses the yum libraries for retrieving information and packages. If no configuration file is specified, the default yum configura-
tion will be used.
