yum: Find the package that provides a particular command.
$ yum provides ${command}
try on your machine
The "yum provides" command is used in a Linux distribution that uses the yum package manager (such as Fedora or CentOS) to search for the package that provides a specific command or file.
When you run the command "yum provides ${command}", you replace "${command}" with the command or file you want to find. The command will then search for the package that provides that specific command or file among the available repositories and return the result.
This command is helpful if you are not sure which package provides a particular command or file required for a specific task. By using "yum provides", you can quickly identify the package that contains the necessary command or file and then install it using yum or other package management tools.
