[gentoo-user] information about installed files

[gentoo-user] information about installed files

[Helmut Jarausch]

Hi,

I'd like to modify a 'systemrescuecd' to setup my network,
i.e. load firmware, etc.
For that I need to know which files are installed (where) by
a given package, in my case
net-dialup/ppp 
net-misc/br2684ctl
net-dialup/speedtouch-usb

Gentoo has to keep this information for 'unmerge'.

Many thanks for a hint and perhaps a hint where to
find such internals about Gentoo in future,
