[gentoo-dev] Using some of the emerge features in external programs

[Abraham Marin Perez]

Hi everyone,

    Firstly I want to say hello since this is the first e-mail I send to
this mailing list. The second and maybe the most important point is that
I'd like to use one of the features of emerge, and that is a way to know
the version of an application that'd be emerged given the name of the
application or, yet better, the complete name(s) of the file(s) that'd
be downloaded to emerge that application.

    The application I want to do is actually just a script to clean
distfiles directory, but I'd like it to keep files that'd be used if we
install their programs and delete those files that wouldn't be used
anyway.

Abraham.
