Allegedly, on or about 24 June 2014, Stephen Morris sent:
Does this mean that yum and dnf only search non-installed package
descriptions/names?
Yum's search function was limited to a smaller set of data unless you
did "yum search all," then it looked wider afield. It even suggested
you try it, if you got low/no results (it's been a while since I've
noticed this).
Thanks Tim, neither yum nor dnf, both of which give the same results,
didn't suggest to try a further search, but I would have thought that as
a minimum they would have searched installed packages first. It is
completely illogical to me for a product to do a search for specified
functionality and not tell you that functionality is provided by
something you already have installed.

Steve
