 Where the heck is at at?

Where you'd expect :)

[07:42 PM]wwong ~ $ equery belongs atd
[ Searching for file(s) atd in *... ]
sys-process/at-3.1.8-r11 (/etc/init.d/atd)
sys-process/at-3.1.8-r11 (/usr/sbin/atd)

though, I admit, emerge --search at would probably give too many 
results than useful.

The fact that even some bloke like me can hold a slashdot UID in the
bottom quarter says quite a bit about the usual readership of the
website.  Expecting the slashdot crowd to be mature and make informed 
comments is, well, like expecting a Fermat number to be prime: it used 
to work a long time ago when the number was small...

 I would think it was one of the coreutils...wrongly it seems.

$ eix -e at
* sys-process/at
 Available versions:  3.1.8-r11 3.1.8-r12
 Installed:   none
 Homepage:
ftp://jurix.jura.uni-sb.de/pub/jurix/source/chroot/appl/at/
 Description: Queues jobs for later execution

In this particular case I would recommend app-portage/eix for finding it.
Though not very helpful when you don't know the full path [1] did also show
the same package when searching for /usr/bin/at. That home page is, however,
still in a beta state.

Thanks for the great tip Bo!

I have many uses for a portage search tool that doesn't require the app to be 
installed to find it. installing eix now...

Many query tools accept basic regular expressions, namely ^ to begin a 
line and $ to end it.


[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $ eix ^at$

This is more generally applicable than the other example of the -e flag.

Thanks,
