I'll bet you dollars to donuts that what you're seeing here is not fun with DNF but actually fun with _bash_, and with wildcards in specific. Bash does a helpful but sometimes annoyingly magical thing where if a wildcard doesn't match anything, it passes the wildcard character on to the command. So, since you have nothing that matches *Google* with a captial G in your home directory, DNF gets those, and does a wildcard search (and defaults to being case insensitive). But, I bet you have a file containing *google* in your home directory. Now, the wildcard matches, and DNF is asked to search for whatever that exact filename is — and then since that's unlikely to exactly match a package name, you get no results. Try dnf list available "*google*" which keeps the wildcards from expanding. -- Matthew Miller <mat...@fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader -- users mailing list users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
