In the German computer magazine c't (Heft 8/09), there recently was a
question in the "Hotline" section asking how to find files in packages 
that are not installed[0], like urpmf of Mandriva. And even the answerer 
of the c't did not know that "webpin -c" would do the trick. Perhaps 
because webpin is not installed by default and not even in the default
repositories, or because it is not possible within the YaST GUI.

Additionally, the web search is not capable of searching for file names.
