…used to find out which package provides some feature or file. Just use a specific name or a file-glob-syntax wildcards to list the packages available or installed that provide that feature or file.
Here is an example
yum whoprovides httpd httpd.i386 : Apache HTTP Server
yum is an automatic updater and package installer/remover for rpm systems.
