How to list the files for a ubuntu package ?
i can install a pkg using "apt-get install some.pkg",
now how to tell how many files and where they are installed ? looked into help, used to be a apt-file, but not anymore. BTW, why ubuntu is so hard to use these days, becoming harder, a simple thing takes forever to search for answer. You know the keyword, you can find it easily. Otherwise never. |
Install apt-file, update its database:
Code:
sudo apt-get install apt-file Code:
apt-file list openbox For more info on apt-file have a look at Code:
man apt-file |
Another option is to use dpkg with the -L switch, like this:
Code:
dpkg -L firefox |
it turned out to be that package has some kind of issue ...
