1 This file maps each file available in the Debian GNU/Linux system to
2 the package from which it originates. It includes packages from the
3 DIST distribution for the ARCH architecture.
5 You can use this list to determine which package contains a specific
6 file, or whether or not a specific file is available. The list is
7 updated weekly, each architecture on a different day.
9 When a file is contained in more than one package, all packages are
10 listed. When a directory is contained in more than one package, only
13 The best way to search quickly for a file is with the Unix `grep'
14 utility, as in `grep <regular expression> CONTENTS':
17 etc/nosendfile net/sendfile
18 usr/X11R6/bin/noseguy x11/xscreensaver
19 usr/X11R6/man/man1/noseguy.1x.gz x11/xscreensaver
20 usr/doc/examples/ucbmpeg/mpeg_encode/nosearch.param graphics/ucbmpeg
21 usr/lib/cfengine/bin/noseyparker admin/cfengine
23 This list contains files in all packages, even though not all of the
24 packages are installed on an actual system at once. If you want to
25 find out which packages on an installed Debian system provide a
26 particular file, you can use `dpkg --search <filename>':
28 $ dpkg --search /usr/bin/dselect
29 dpkg: /usr/bin/dselect
