list installed packages or programs lfs

Installed lfs working on blfs would like to get a lisyt of installed packages
Have tired all of the commands from this thread
http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/show-di...eebsd-openbsd/

Also tried /usr/bin/ls which does give a list but not the actual installed program.

Try,
this:

sudo find {/var,/opt} -type d -iname \*package\*  -user root -exec ls -l {} \;

It will list down all packages you have installed.

Since I have no idea how it is arranged under lfs I cannot point out which folder are your packages are kept. You may try look for it from /var, /opt or even /tmp. In Slackware it is located at /var/log/packages/records-of-all-packages-installed-here.

Hope that helps.

Good luck.

The first question would be if you have used a package management system when installing LFS. If not, there is no way to tell which packages you have installed, you have to keep track of that yourself.

Didn't choose a package-management system but before I install a package I do check the list of installed directories before continuing.
