No CentOS or Fedora ... is there any other OS out there besides these two??? I have heard rumors of others, but I don't believe it :D
Or yum provides <package name or string>
One new behavior is important ... if you are looking for a file name that is part of a string, you have to use wildcards:
yum provides libkholidays.so (this give NOTHING) yum provides \*libkholidays.so or yum provides '*libkholidays.so'those will return the answer of: "kdepim.i386 : PIM (Personal Information Manager) for KDE"
