pkglocate is just a simple shell script which uses locate(1) on a database built with pkg_mklocatedb(1) as part of a ports build, which includes files from every port, not just those which are installed, e.g. $ pkglocate libuuid.so e2fsprogs-1.42.7p0:sysutils/e2fsprogs:/usr/local/lib/libuuid.so.14.0 fedora_base-10.0p1:emulators/fedora/base:/usr/local/emul/fedora/lib/libuuid.so.1 fedora_base-10.0p1:emulators/fedora/base:/usr/local/emul/fedora/lib/libuuid.so.1.2 $ ls -l /var/db/pkg/fedora* ls: /var/db/pkg/fedora*: No such file or directory
