Hi,
I don't think dpkg already has this feature, but wouldn't it be
interesting to give dpkg an option to show all the configuration files
that belong to a specific package. (Like rpm -qc)
I'know that the configfiles that belong to a package are kept in a
file (/var/lib/dpkg/info/<pkgn>.conffiles)
Also dpkg -s <pkg> will show the conffiles but this gives a lot more
(extra) information.
I already wrote a small poc/patch to show what I mean, but since i'am
not very familiar with the dpkg-code I think someone with better
programming-skills
needs to rewrite it.
This patch was written on dpkg-1.10.28
$ ./dpkg-query -h
Usage: dpkg-query [<option>] <command>
Commands:
-s|--status <package-name> ... display package status details
-p|--print-avail <package-name> ... display available version details
-F|--listconf <package-name> list config files `owned' by a package
...
$ ./dpkg-query -F apache
/etc/init.d/apache
/etc/logrotate.d/apache
Kind regards,
Leo
