One thing to note with this: if you have a file that matches */xxd (for
example, if you have /home/mike/bin/xxd and the current directory is
/home/mike) yum (or maybe its bash) will expand the wildcard.
So, assuming you are in /home/mike, and /home/mike/bin/xxd exists, then:
yum whatprovides */xxd
is the same as:
yum whatprovides /home/mike/bin/xxd
Yum will come back and say "No matches found."
If you put quotes (single or double) around the '*/xxd', yum will really do
a wildcard search.
