maybe someone will know this better then me. in get_splitoffs I'm using this $package = Fink::PkgVersion-match_package($name); which will return one match to a pkg name maybe the fault it there since there are two versions of netpbm-bin. or am I wrong, does it return both and I just

I think this is true for at least parent, as I explained before I have many users ask where a pkg is, like in the case of mplayer which depends on libavcodec which is in ffmpeg. Fink will say it can't find the depend on libavcodec, and then ppl don't know where to find this. Now if it's not

fink showparent libavcodec-shlibs would show it's in ffmpeg. then they could copy over that info file. And of course for us with like 100 pkgs well I don't need to explain the devel usage i think. --- TS http://southofheaven.org Chaos is the beginning and end, try dealing with the rest. On

I've never looked at the PDB so your right but then it could reuse the sub to get this info. And add a show parent in the PDB for users, but then it could be in the devel module. so how about it? I'm willing to get the module started and move some commands to it, if someone will right the

I'm not sure showparent is a dev command though I've had lots of ppl move mplayer into their local and then it depends on libavcodec which it's a pkg it's part of ffmpeg and xmms-aac which is part of faad. But I know these since I'm the maintainers, even other devel have asked me about em.
