Is there a temporary folder I can find the RPM's that yum downloads to install programs? During an installation yum shows the exact name of the RPM file but I don't know how to find it. How can I search for the RPM if I know the name of it?
Where does yum save the RPM files it downloads
rpmyum

I believe what you are looking for is
/var/cache/yum/<repo>/packages
. This directory is expunged during package cleanup.You can search for a file by name with the
find
command. An example:find / -name 'package.rpm'
Wildcards are supported.find -name 'package*.rpm'
