[gentoo-portage-dev] Configuration files in a package

[Andrea Carpani <ml@carpani.net>]

Hi everybody.

Suppose I have a costom package that contains some executables, data,
lib and config files:

/usr/bin/foo
/usr/share/foo/data
/usr/lib/libfoo.so
/etc/foo.cfg

Is there a way to tag some package files as "configuration files" (in
the custom ebuild with a custom function maybe) so that once the package
is installed I can do something like

# qpkg --get-cfg-files foo

and obtain a list like 

/etc/foo.cfg

I'd like to have the same thing for library and executable files.

# qpkg --get-lib-files foo

/usr/lib/libfoo.so

Or maybe something that gives me a LIBS or CONFIG file in
/var/db/pkg/<category>/<app> filled with files that the ebuild tagged in
a special way.

Thanks.
