Yes, it fails. But if I do
 $ yum provides /usr/lib/libogg.so.*
or if I execute
 $ yum provides '/usr/lib/libogg.so.*'
yum is able to find the right package and to work at least with the
asterisk wildcard.
Is there a way to submit wildcards if the backend supports them? (I guess
this needs some time to implement it, but I would help if I can)
