From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I need a "$ dnf where " command or equivalent (lemmy.world)

Problems are related to where distrobox is stashing a clblas and openblas package. It's on the base system too, further complicating searches. I've tried all kinds of stuff with no luck. I hate the massive find command's obfuscated ancient API of a full sized ANSI language specification. Python or C is easier than that junk.

A simple $ dnf where command seems like such an obvious thing even if it is an unrelated alias or function outside of dnf.
