What command is used to download an RPM package without installing it?

The command used to download an RPM package without installing it is yumdownloader. This tool is part of the Yum package manager suite, which is commonly used in RPM-based Linux distributions like CentOS and Fedora. Yumdownloader allows users to fetch the RPM package files directly from the repositories without proceeding to install them on the system. This is particularly useful for scenarios where you want to download a package for offline installation or for examination before installation.

The other choices do not serve the same function: rpmget is not a standard command in common Linux distributions; apt-get is specifically for managing APT packages on Debian-based systems, not RPM packages; and dpkget seems to be a confusion as the actual command in Debian packaging systems is dpkg, which is for installing, removing, and managing .deb packages, not for downloading them. Therefore, yumdownloader is the correct choice for downloading RPM packages without initiating installation.
