Greetings,
are there any "eix" gurus out there?
I want to check whether or not some installed package was installed from
a binary or an ebuild. However, according to "man eix" predicate "{is-
binary}" "returns 1 or empty depending on whether there is a correspond-
ing *.tbz2, *gpkg.tar, or *.xpak file for the version". This is not ex-
actly what I need, because an existing binary package for the same ver-
sion does not guarantee that the package was really installed from that
binary: if the USE flags don't match, the package will nevertheless be
installed from the ebuild.
So, is there a way to persuade "eix" to reveal this information? Or is
there any other command I could use?
Any hints welcome :-)
Sincerely,
Rainer
