In Fedora 11, this is the ouput of yum search hulahop:

[tomeu at zviratko ~]$ yum search hulahop
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, presto, refresh-packagekit
=============================== Matched: hulahop ===============================
hulahop.i586 : A pygtk widget for embedding mozilla

Are you sure you wrote the name of the package correctly?
