True, "yum search" doesn't help in this case. Repo (or RPM) queries are
needed to check whether the required thing is provided by any package or
not. Since the above dependencies are unresolvable, here are only working
examples:

$ repoquery --whatprovides 'perl(Storable)'
perl-Storable-0:2.45-2.fc20.x86_64

$ rpm -q --provides perl-Storable
perl(Storable) = 2.45
perl-Storable = 2.45-2.fc20
perl-Storable(x86-64) = 2.45-2.fc20

$ rpm -q --whatprovides 'perl(Storable)'
perl-Storable-2.45-2.fc20.x86_64

$ yum whatprovides 'perl(Storable)'
