Yes, for someone who is used to the mechanism, a raw search will often
turn up useful information that isn't available in a better-organized
format anywhere. But you have to discard the questions and incorrect
answers that a search will return and it's not really a good replacement
for a tutorial on how to find, add, and maintain the components that
fedora omits.
