Hi, you can search for a file name from installed packages with "dpkg -S". For example: # dpkg -S paperconf libpaperg: /usr/share/man/man8/paperconfig.8.gz libpaperg: /usr/bin/paperconf libpaperg: /usr/sbin/paperconfig libpaperg: /usr/share/man/man1/paperconf.1.gz Regards, Mikael Magnusson -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
