The description of "yum search" in the manual says: search Is used to find any packages matching a string in the descrip- tion, summary, packager and package name fields of an rpm. Use- ful for finding a package you do not know by name but know by some word related to it. It doesn't mention file names. In case my example from Debian wasn't clear - "apt-file" will allow searching by file-names through all repositories - including installed and uninstalled pacakges. Thanks, --Amos
