You can force searching everything by specifying "all" as the first argument.

Me neither, until I saw yum telling me about it some time ago. After some searches it says: Name and summary matches only, use "search all" for everything. Andras

No. [simon@x101 ~]$ man yum ... search This is used to find packages when you know something about the package but aren't sure of it's name. By default search will try searching just package names and summaries, but if that "fails" it will then try descriptions and url. Yum search orders the results so that those packages matching more terms will appear first. You can force searching everything by specifying "all" as the first argument. Though the man page is a bit confusing, because it says * search string1 [string2] [...] in the DESCRIPTION section. Andras

That searches for the phrase "all" in package names and descriptions, that doesn't make sense to me. Did you mean `yum list all <glob>` instead? -- Suvayu Open source is the future. It sets us free.
