In general you can't because, when you think about it, in the Gentoo world most packages don't contain "installable files". The files don't get created until build time, and then the files that are installed depends variably on USE flags, CFLAGS, architecture, FEATURES, etc. etc. So the set of installed files created by a package on my system can be different than the set of files created by the same package on your system. But people don't like that answer. So there is a statistical, though not always accurate way of finding out: http://www.portagefilelist.de/
