[gentoo-user] How to list every installed package?

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 535 bytes --]

Hi there,

how can I list every installed package in Gentoo? The
file /var/lib/portage/world shows some installed packages, but how can I
see all other packages which have been installed automatically?

Thanks for any help
Johannes

qlist

And I often use it with -CISL, but your needs may differ.

equery list should work.  It's even in alphabetical order which is neat.

:-)  :-) 

P. S.  Ain't it funny that everybody has a different way of doing the
same thing?  And a different tool for each one.

No, the suggested commands aren't all even doing the same thing.
Especially emerge -e world is an outlier. On a box with a "lazy" or a
"first time install, learning Gentoo" admin it's likely to give a very
different result from most of the others.

As the OP hasn't given a reason or motivation why he needs the package
list, what it is for, we can only make assumptions and throw out wild
guesses.

After all, he might even be after emerge -pv --depclean, as it, too,
sort of prints out pretty much all packages on the system. Not to
mention a few thousand lines of dependency information. :)

They may not be doing the same thing but they are a answer to the same
question.

Thank you all for your answers, that is exactly I was looking for.
