What about a script that looks for all installed packages, looks at what they installed into /usr/include, and extracts those files from the sources? Just some basic thoughts: Get all file lists for installed packages: find /var/db/pkg/ -type f -name CONTENTS # extract package name and version from path of the file, e.g. /var/db/pkg/kde-base/kdelibs-4.9.1/CONTENT would yield name = kde-base/kdelibs, version = 4.9.1 Find out the source archive file from the ebuild (there's probably a nice python way for this. As a last resort, some one-liner like emerge -pvfO "=$name-$version"|sed -n '1s_.*/\(.*\) .*_\1_gp' which gets the filename of the first URL that emerge spits out. Now extract all those files from the source archive whose path starts with /usr/include in the CONTENTS file. -- Gruß | Greetings | Qapla' Please do not share anything from, with or about me with any Facebook service.
