Summary and Info:
Currently -Fo does not show package ownership if directories are not specified with a trailing slash. But one would expect it to show packages owning the directory regardless of an implementation detail. It would be great to support directories without the need of using a trailing slash or document the behaviour in the man page. Steps to Reproduce: (Example) $ pacman -Fo /usr/include/pulse shows nothing $ pacman -Fo /usr/include/pulse/ usr/include/pulse/ is owned by extra/libpulse 12.2-2 |
This task depends upon
Altering this behavior would actually require changing how pacman searches for files and including an assumed "filename/" to every search for "filename".
