"yum install" not accepting \* while "yum list" accepting it seems to
me like a mechanism to keep you from shooting yourself in the foot
accidentally and not a bug. It makes it much harder to add a whole
bunch of packages that you don't want for architectures that you are
not running on.

"yum install" will accept multiple distinct package names so after you
locate what you want with "yum list" or "yum search", adding all the
names to the end of yum install shouldn't be difficult.
