Issue
I want to install Apache Solr on my linux machine, and am wondering if I can install it with yum. yum list prints all available packages, but it's impossible to read through thousands of these to find the right install, especially considering a package could be named virtually anything.
Is there a better way to find out if a particular package is available with yum?
Solution
Two options (since they both tend to return different results)
yum search solr
yum list | grep solr
I see only the PHP plugin on my machine, but I'm using an older release.
Need even more, you can do a filename match on things with solr in them:
yum provides */*solr*
