Hi ho,
   What program do I run to determine what emerge operation installed
something on the system, in this specific case /etc/init.d/serial? I
guessed it would be equery but that didn't work.

dragonfly ~ # equery b /etc/init.d/serial
[ Searching for file(s) /etc/init.d/serial in *... ]
dragonfly ~ #

   qpkg didn't seem to go backward from a file name.

   What other program can I run to discover that?

Thanks,
Mark
