Hi,
have you ever heared about www.portagefilelist.de ? As I never have heared of this service before, I thought I let you know too...
Portage File List collects which files are installed by which ebuild on users machines. It shares this data publicly for searching/browsing.
It allows user to search for files that are not installed on their system and figure out which ebuild they need to install in order to obtain it. |

AFAIK equery b <filename> does the same. equery belongs to the app-portage/gentoolkit package.
| Code: |
# equery --help
Gentoo package query tool
Usage: equery [global-options] module-name [module-options]
global options
-h, --help display this help message
-q, --quiet minimal output
-C, --no-color turn off colors
-N, --no-pipe turn off pipe detection
-V, --version display version info
modules (short name)
(b)elongs list what package FILES belong to
......
# equery b /usr/bin/equery
* Searching for /usr/bin/equery ...
app-portage/gentoolkit-0.3.0_rc11-r3 (/usr/bin/equery)
