I will try this tomorrow (are you still awake? already awake? or just
not in Germany? ;) ),... but shouldn't dpkg -S /emul/ already list all
files below /emul/, that are known to dpkg?

I made a short test with dpkg -S /emul/ia32-libs/usr/lib/libutil.a
There's a file with this name in libc6-dev and libc6-dev-i386,.. but
both not below /emul

Seems so ;)

Not sure which ones you mean.... but that's not unlikely,... as I'm
usually upgrading every day (sid).

Ah?! Isn't it guaranteed,.. that any files from a package are deleted
when it's removed/purged or upgraded and the file was dropped in the
newer version (perhaps apart from config files)???
So why can this happen?


Thanks so far & gn8,
Chris :)
