There's no official way to know what package includes a file you're interested in. Unofficially, the file lists for the last buildworld I ran on the 10.4 tree are available in searchable mode here: http://www.snaggledworks.com/fink/buildworld/2010-08-14/search.html This is from 2.5 years ago, so many new packages have been created since then which won't show up in the results, but it is a starting point. http://www.snaggledworks.com/fink/buildworld/2012-05-07/search.html has the 10.7 archive. > 2) If /sw/lib/libsomething.so is already installed, is there a way > to query to see what package it belongs to? Kind of like rpm -qf ? dpkg -S <string> will tell you what packages have an installed file that includes <string> in its name.
