Stupid question of the day.

How can I find a file that is associated with a package installed on my Ubuntu 12.04 desktop. More clarification, so if I:

PHP Code:



lsof -p 11399 
java    11399 davider  mem    REG        8,6   438211   265067 /usr/lib/java/jre1.7.0_07/lib/i386/libt2k.so

How can I find the program that this file is associated with?

Nevermind, I figured it out:

PHP Code:



sudo dpkg -S Unix.pm 
perl-modules: /usr/share/perl/5.14.2/ExtUtils/CBuilder/Platform/Unix.pm 
perl-modules: /usr/share/perl/5.14.2/Module/Build/Platform/Unix.pm 
perl-base: /usr/lib/perl/5.14.2/File/Spec/Unix.pm 
liburi-perl: /usr/share/perl5/URI/file/Unix.pm 
perl-modules: /usr/share/perl/5.14.2/ExtUtils/MM_Unix.pm 
libdatetime-timezone-perl: /usr/share/perl5/DateTime/TimeZone/Local/Unix.pm

does anyone know the RPM equivalent?

Nevermind:

yum provides <path-to-file>
