I was discussing this with one of the devs in the company this |
14 |
morning, and we both want to know how to determine which |
15 |
ebuild(s) will install a certain binary/lib that isn;t |
16 |
installed yet. Is there an app that does this? |

As a very simplistic example, I want 'equery', there's no ebuild |
19 |
called 'equery' cause it comes from gentoolkit. If I didn't |
20 |
already know that, how could I find it out? |

We had a quick look this morning and it seems like to do it we |
23 |
might have to extend something in the portage tree, perhaps a |
24 |
new xml tag in the metadata file that the maintainer would have |
25 |
to keep current |
