yum-downloadonly disappeared or missing from CentOS 6

Hopefully this can save someone else some time

If you get the error message: "No Package matching 'yum-downloadonly'"

Well it's because the package was renamed in RHEL6, but CentOS 6 only recently removed it, so now you must refer to yum-plugin-downloadonly instead.

Snippet from here: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/10154

(RHEL5)
# yum install yum-downloadonly

(RHEL6)
# yum install yum-plugin-downloadonly
