yum
yum provides
Sometimes we know the name of the program/command that is required but we do not know which rpm file or package should be installed in order to install the given program/command. In such cases one can use:
yum provides */<binary-name>
to list names of all packages which provide a file with given name. Then based on package description correct package can be installed to obtain the program.
