This version (of course) does the job. After thinking this over, and
contradicting my earlier suggestion that I have a life, I fiddled with
Martin's script a bit. I think it now works, but at a cost of a bit
more complexity:
~/bin/grepbom:
#!/bin/sh
[ -z $1 ] && exec echo "usage: grepbom REGEXP"
find /Library/Receipts/ -name \*.bom -exec ~/bin/grepbom1 '{}' $1 \;
printf "\n"
~/bin/grepbom1:
#!/bin/sh
CR=1
echo -n "."
lsbom -p fST "$1" |grep $2 && printf " ====> %s\n\n" $1 && CR=0
[ ${CR} -eq 0 ] && printf "\n"

That's the problem with long threads...finding the beginning, once the
end is near :-}. The original problem was figuring out which package a
particular file belongs to. Martin offered his script, which worked
well unless the package name (the 'foo' part of "/Library/Receipts/foo")
had spaces in it. This is fairly rare, but fink, for one, has `em.
There followed this "much ado about nothing" exchange which leads us
here...
Regards,
Justin
