hi, I feature which I miss a long time from rpm would be useful and IMHO easy to add to yum. eg when I looking for which package related to a given "subject" ie. would like to search in the descriprion or in the file list. to give a concrate example: - when I see that some program require libxyz.so.4, then I use to do in the rpm dir: rpm -qpil *.rpm|less then /libxyz.so.4 to find the file then go up a bit to find which package contains that file. since yum knows the filelist it would be very useful: yum search libxyz.so.4 gives a package name - when I looking for irda related packages I search in the description rpm -qpi *.rpm|less then /irda yum search irda would be very useful. -- Levente "Si vis pacem para bellum!"
