Using eix to find anything you don't have is a waste of time.
eix indexes stuff you DO have or is in the tree. It does not index files you
do not have.
Doh.

Well, this is not something you install but you can use this site to
look for files that some unknown package provides.
http://www.portagefilelist.de/index.php/Special:PFLQuery2
Just type in the name and see what package it shows providing that file.
If you can, install app-portage/pfl and you can help build the list of
files as well. I run mine every few weeks or when I install something new.
Hope that helps.

Have a look here: http://www.portagefilelist.de/index.php/Special:PFLQuery2 This is not 100% reliable, as sometimes the files that get installed depend on USE flags and such. But it worked well for me in the past. Wonko

It's not totally possible as Dale and Alex said. The site they gave works well
fpr the most part. But there's another way -
just ask here :-)
Seriously, it works. Someone is bound to have what you need and will run an
equery depends for you. Luckily, the question you ask is actually quite rare.
