Yum search "name", but it will only look in enabled repos.
Are you sure about that?
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,

Sorry-- I fired before I read the entire message. Yum search searches by
package name.
