weird yum behavior with provides and install
Why could whatprovides not lookup this info for over 10 minutes, but install could install that package in less than a minute?


Code:
[bob@hi ~]$ yum whatprovides */lsb_release
Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit, versionlock
^Cupdates/group           18% [==           ] 3.1 kB/s | 360 kB     08:28 ETA 
 Current download cancelled, interrupt (ctrl-c) again within two seconds
to exit.
