I'd like to buy a vowel.

Can someone tell me what package xxd is in?

Here's the progression:

1) yum install xxd <bzzzzt>
2) yum whatprovides xxd <bzzzzt>
3) yum whatprovides od <bzzzt> (worth a shot?)
4) google: yum install xxd <nothing seems relevant> <bzzzt>
5) google: yum xxd <nothing seems relevant> <bzzzt>
6) google: fedora xxd <nothing seems relevant> <bzzzt>
7) search gmail fedora list archives: xxd <bzzt no hits>
8) pull hair out
9) compose message to mailing list...

TIA......
