-.B urpmf [\fIoptions\fP] <\fIfile\fP>
+.B urpmf [\fIoptions\fP] <\fIpattern\fP>
.SH DESCRIPTION
urpmf outputs a list of packages providing the file specified as an argument.
.PP
-<\fIfile\fP> is the name of the file you wish to know the package providing
-it. Note that you may type just a substring of the file you are looking for,
-\fBurpmf\fP will then print a list of matching files with their corresponding

+\fIpattern\fP is the name or part of the name of the file you wish to know which
+packages are providing it. \fBurpmf\fP will then print a list of matching files
+with their corresponding packages.
.PP
-urpmf searches through installed and uninstalled packages.
+Using options you may search though other packages parameters.
+\fBurpmf\fP searches through installed and uninstalled packages.
