Description Kam Leo 2007-11-26 07:40:44 UTC

Description of problem:

It's hard to install/get mozilla-plugin-config if yum cannot tell you to which
package it belongs.

E.g. 

$$ sudo yum provides mozilla-plugin-config
No Matches found

Please add mozilla-plugin-config to the "Provides" or appropriate section of
package.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Every time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Execute "sudo yum provides mozilla-plugin-config"
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
No Matches found

Expected results:
nspluginwrapper - 0.9.91.5-8.fc8.i386 

Additional info:

Comment 1 Kam Leo 2007-11-26 08:18:06 UTC

Just to keep things tidy: 

$sudo yum search mozilla-plugin-config
nspluginwrapper.i386 : A compatibility layer for Netscape 4 plugins

So if you are well versed in yum you can find the package.

Thus my bug is why shouldn't the "provides" switch have worked with yum for this
package?

Comment 2 Martin Stransky 2007-11-26 11:31:07 UTC

Use the "whatprovides" yum directive:

[root@dhcp-lab-232 ~]# yum whatprovides "/usr/bin/mozilla-plugin-config"
