Hi!
I have a question:
I think qpkg -f only looks for files you have currently installed in
your computer, is that true?

I am looking for a tool like apt-file [debian] or maybe a pacman
option I could use on Arch.
I think one pacman lack is that it can't discover to which package a
file belongs if the package is not installed. It will be nice an
option like: pacman -So glxgears
