It probably would be nice if somebody could expand the online package database to include a list of installed files. If you already have a package installed you can always use equery to find out what provided a particular file. However, if you don't have it installed it isn't always obvious where you can get it. I've seen objections raised to the fact that files installed can vary based on USE settings, etc. Perhaps a good starting point would be just to catalog what each package installs on the default x86 profile without any USE changes. Sure, it might only be a 99% solution, but it seems like we're going without simply for the sake of the 1% of packages like VNC which actually build more files if you have a USE flag set... Sorry - not really amd64-specific - more like a GLEP. It just seemed relevant to the discussion here... -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFDXj2Dg2bN8aFizRkRAh5JAJ91MfoNDuzrJcPcMYUPUFYnPpjB9QCdG1pS bPCWxVcEz7P1SzgUQIPwewg= =kPTD -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
