I don't believe I've seen someone point out *this* distinction, the
different parameters being written after "yum," in this thread, that
different people have written while trying to work it out:

  yum search
  yum provides

Note *that* difference, search or provides, not the actual
gnome-tweak-tool thing being looked for, as to why it's not doing what
you expect.  They do different jobs.

All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point
trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the
public lists.

George Orwell's '1984' was supposed to be a warning against tyranny, not
a set of instructions for supposedly democratic governments.
