Only if you already know the full path to the file, and if you're only
interested in the active port.
What I have in mind is two-fold:
- an alternative to spotlight's `mdfind -name` limited to files installed by
MacPorts (which could be enough justification to exclude ${prefix} from
SpotLight indexing).
- a way to find the port(s) that install a given file, even if they're not
currently active (as in, which port was it again I have to activate to
re-enable that nifty command called something like ...).
Thanks for the suggestions, I'll play around with them!
