To delete the common parts (version and suffix) to get the package name
I have lots of package version +suffix full name, but I just want to get the package name, which means delete the common parts

eg:

Code:
dtc-1.3.0+gitAUTOINC+033089f29099bdfd5c2d6986cdb9fd07b16cfde0-r4.1.x86_64.rpm            dtc-dev-1.3.0+gitAUTOINC+033089f29099bdfd5c2d6986cdb9fd07b16cfde0-r4.1.x86_64.rpm        dtc-staticdev-1.3.0+gitAUTOINC+033089f29099bdfd5c2d6986cdb9fd07b16cfde0-r4.1.x86_64.rpm
dtc-dbg-1.3.0+gitAUTOINC+033089f29099bdfd5c2d6986cdb9fd07b16cfde0-r4.1.x86_64.rpm        dtc-misc-1.3.0+gitAUTOINC+033089f29099bdfd5c2d6986cdb9fd07b16cfde0-r4.1.x86_64.rpm

out put

Code:
dtc
dtc-dev
dtc-static-dev
dtc-misc

another example is:

Code:
openvswitch-1.10.0-r4.atom_intel.rpm             openvswitch-dbg-1.10.0-r4.atom_intel.rpm         openvswitch-doc-1.10.0-r4.atom_intel.rpm         openvswitch-switch-1.10.0-r4.atom_intel.rpm openvswitch-controller-1.10.0-r4.atom_intel.rpm  openvswitch-dev-1.10.0-r4.atom_intel.rpm         openvswitch-pki-1.10.0-r4.atom_intel.rpm         openvswitch-testing-1.10.0-r4.atom_intel.rpm

to get
Code:







openvswitch

openvswitch-dpg

openvswitch-doc

openvswitch-dev

openvswitch-pki

openvswitch-testing

Good idea, but there're multiple fields in a record/line. Adopting an idea:




Code:



awk -F'-[0-9]|[ ][ ]*' '{for(i=1;i<=NF;i+=2) print $i}' myFile
