Well, in the case of lynx, where the filename of the executable matches the package name, it's fairly simple: lucid-nonsense:/usr/ports:% cd /usr/ports lucid-nonsense:/usr/ports:% make search name=lynx Port: ja-lynx-2.8.7.r1 Path: /usr/ports/japanese/lynx Info: A terminal-based World-Wide Web Client with multi-byte modification Maint: po...@freebsd.org B-deps: libiconv-1.14 R-deps: libiconv-1.14 WWW: http://lynx.isc.org/current/ Port: ja-lynx-2.8.8.d3 Path: /usr/ports/japanese/lynx-current Info: A terminal-based World-Wide Web Client with multi-byte modification (development version) Maint: po...@freebsd.org B-deps: libiconv-1.14 R-deps: libiconv-1.14 WWW: http://lynx.isc.org/current/ Port: lynx-2.8.7.2,1 Path: /usr/ports/www/lynx Info: A non-graphical, text-based World-Wide Web client Maint: jhar...@widomaker.com B-deps: gettext-0.18.1.1 libiconv-1.14 openssl-1.0.1_4 R-deps: gettext-0.18.1.1 libiconv-1.14 openssl-1.0.1_4 WWW: http://lynx.isc.org/ Port: lynx-2.8.8d12_1 Path: /usr/ports/www/lynx-current Info: A non-graphical, text-based World-Wide Web client Maint: joh...@freebsd.org B-deps: gettext-0.18.1.1 libiconv-1.14 libidn-1.25 openssl-1.0.1_4 pkgconf-0.8.9 R-deps: gettext-0.18.1.1 libiconv-1.14 libidn-1.25 mime-support-3.52.2 openssl-1.0.1_4 pkgconf-0.8.9 WWW: http://lynx.isc.org/current/ However, in the general case, there isn't (as far as I know) a database of all of the files installed by all of the packages that can be generated from the ports. I believe bapt@ had plans to gather this sort of data on the yet-to-be-commisioned pkgng build cluster. As that's currently out of action as a consequence of the security incident, and the whole package building system is being revised, I don't know if that's still on the cards or likely to be implemented any time soon.
