Yes it's in /var/db/pkg/$CAT/$PF/CONTENTS - there's md5sum and filesize for each installed file. You can check them for example by qcheck from portage-utils.

[gentoo-portage-dev] Does portage store checksums for every installed file in a package?
Hello all, I was wondering whether portage calculates and stores a checksum for every installed file (every file appearing in the output of "equery f "). If so, how can I access it? I've found a Manifest file in distfiles, but it doesn't seem to store checksums for the installed files. Thanks, Amit -- gentoo-portage-dev@lists.gentoo.org mailing list

We have support for packages sets in trunk (will be released as portage-2.2) and they have some documentation in docbook format. In case you'd like to try it, there are some instructions for using trunk here: http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/portage/doc/testing.xml Zac -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFHptf6/ejvha5XGaMRAoHkAJ4nk9NEfRnmZ8jBoy+EGl2HTFqfqQCgxROp CINbUR/BFGMcUX+VisQXPOE= =Mcbd -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- gentoo-portage-dev@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
