Hi,
I've seen a file named "[" in my /usr/bin ...
Perfectly normal. It is a program that implements bash style tests
for script environments that don't normally do them. For example:
if [ -f /etc/passwd ] ; then
echo "/etc/passwd exists and is a regular file"
fi
Notice the "[" after the "if"....
"man test" will give you the user manual for it.
More generally, merge gentoolkit, and you can use equery to find out
where things come from. Ex:
~ > equery belongs "/usr/bin/["
[ Searching for file(s) /usr/bin/[ in *... ]
sys-apps/coreutils-5.97 (/usr/bin/[)
~ > equery check coreutils
[ Checking sys-apps/coreutils-5.97 ]
* 318 out of 318 files good
