[gentoo-user] Finding packages which provide a file

[Alexander Skwar]

Hello.

 From time to time, I'm looking for a *not* installed package, which
might provide a certain file. Say, I'd like to know, which packages
could provide "/etc/foo/bar", how would I do that? Are there any sites
out there, which provide a "database", which "connect" installed file
to package? Sort of like a compilation of /var/db/pkg/*/*/CONTENTS?

Thanks,

Alexander Skwar
