Hi all,

Just managed to install gentoo and get up and running! :)

I'm sure that this question has been asked before. I have tried googling and searching this forum. Alas I couldn't find my answer.

Does anyone know how to list the files of an installed package? Can emerge do this or do I need a differnt tool?

Thanks,
Matt

Code:
# equery files pkgname

Replacing pkgname by the name of the package you are interested in.
