[gentoo-user] equery not working

[Wes Gray]

Why doesn't equery actually show me all the installed packages?  I
know I have lots of versions of kde installed, but equery doesn't show them:

# equery l -i kde
[ Searching for package 'kde' in all categories among: ]
 * installed packages
[I--] [  ] kde-base/kde-env-3-r4 (0)
[I--] [  ] kde-base/kde-meta-3.4.1 (3.4)
# ls /usr/kde
3  3.1  3.2  3.3  3.4
#

Is there a utility which shows all the installed packages?

equery works fine for me here.  Two questions, which version of
gentoolkit do you have installed? What does "ls
-ld /var/db/pkg/kde-base/kde*" show?

Here is the info requested:

# emerge -p gentoolkit

These are the packages that I would merge, in order:

[ebuild   R   ] app-portage/gentoolkit-0.2.0

# ls -ld /var/db/pkg/kde-base/kde*

Okay, I know the problem. The command you ran should actually return
nothing since you don't have any packages named kde installed. (It's a
bug that kde-env and kde-meta get returned)

Anyhow, the command you probably want to use is 'equery l kde.*' That
tells equery to return the list of all packages that are installed with
a name starting with 'kde'

You can also use 'equery l kde-base/.*' which will display any packages
that are installed from the kde-base category.

Paul
