T.C.:

Thanks. Once I figured out what Reindl was telling me (as in I had to break my mindset that "/" was a directory slash), it all made sense. As mentioned in my "SOLVED" email, I did "yun list selinux\*" and was able to see exactly what was there.

After I sent that, I tried it for python3 ... I am so glad I didn't just type "yum install python3\*" when I saw everything that was available but not installed.

No matter how much I read/learn about bash, it still remains a "way of doing things" that is somehow alien to me. I rue not making more use of it earlier in my life so I could avoid this "old dog not learning new tricks" problem that I keep hitting.
