rpm -qil <package> will display a summary of the installed package, as well as a list of all files (with paths) installed by that package. There was already a recent thread on getting package summaries, but I'd like to know if there's anyway to get a list of all files installed by a package, with paths. Any way to find that information, short of piecing it together from various Makefiles? Thanks.

Unfortunatly, this is not currently possible. I would certainly like to see this feature as well. It would be a nice feature to request. ;)

Sounds like a plan. How do I request it?

I'm sorry - I must be misunderstanding something very fundamental here. Doesn't "qpkg -l" give a list of installed files for a package?

Excellent! I hadn't heard of qpkg before, but it does exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks!

Code:

epm -ql <package>
qpkg -l <package>

will both do it. They are available if you emerge gentoolkit.

Also, the package contents are in /var/db/pkg/<package_group>/<package_name>/CONTENTS. You can look at them without having anything else installed.

That's awesome! Why isn't this a part of portage? I can't seem to find any documentation on the gentoo site about all the stuff that this installs either. Any tips on where to find info on gentoolkit?

That's a very informative page, but I was more interested to know if it was the only part of gentoolkit and man gentoolkit doesn't work. When I to a qpkg -l gentoolkit, I get the following:
Code:
app-admin/gentoolkit-0.1.14-r1 *
CONTENTS:
/usr
/usr/share
/usr/share/gentoolkit
/usr/share/gentoolkit/histogram.awk
/usr/share/doc
/usr/share/doc/gentoolkit-0.1.14-r1

/usr/sbin
/usr/sbin/pkg-clean
/usr/sbin/mkebuild
/usr/sbin/emerge-webrsync
/usr/sbin/epm
/usr/sbin/etc-update
/etc

Should I use the man page to learn more about all the things in /usr/bin and /usr/sbin or is there a single doc on it somewhere that I haven't found?

gentoolkit itself does not have a single man page. Man pages installed by gentoolkit are in your posting:
Quote:

/usr/share/man/man1/qpkg.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man1/useflag.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man1/lintool.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man1/etc-update.1.gz

Obviously, everything in gentoolkit does not have a man page.

Many programs also support the "--help" or "-h" flag for help. "apropos" or "man -k" and "man -K" can also help you track down man pages by keyword.
