Hi,
Is there a way to search for a file that I can install, but is not currently
installed in the system?
For example:
$ equery belongs zzdir
[ Searching for file(s) zzdir in *... ]
dev-libs/zziplib-0.13.59-r1 (/usr/bin/zzdir)

$ eix -I zziplib
[I] dev-libs/zziplib
     Available versions:  0.13.58-r1 0.13.59-r1 {doc sdl static-libs test}
     Installed versions:  0.13.59-r1(09:22:31 10/30/10)(sdl -doc
-static-libs -test)
     Homepage:            http://zziplib.sourceforge.net/
     Description:         Lightweight library used to easily extract data
from files archived in a single zip file


Here zziplib is installed.
I would like equery return the same output when zziplib is not installed.

Is it possible?

Regards,
Kfir
