[arch-general] What package owns shread
Hello, I have been trying to figure out what package installs the gnu shread program and have had no luck. Pacman doesn't seem to know either and I was hoping someone here might know. If their is another way of looking this up, I would be interested to know as well. $ pacman -Qo shread error: No package owns /usr/local/bin/shread Thank you -- Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That's why its called the present.

We have no packages that install to /usr/local/ that I know of. You installed it there yourself using make install.
coreutils owns /bin/shread, but you seem to have your own local copy. -- Scott Lawrence

It sits in /usr/local/bin, that means it was installed by hand, either by you or someone else who has admin rights to this machine (it may have been an app, too) -- Kwpolska http://kwpolska.tk stop html mail | always bottom-post www.asciiribbon.org | www.netmeister.org/news/learn2quote.html GPG KEY: 5EAAEA16 | Arch Linux x86_64, zsh, mutt, vim. # vim:set textwidth=70:
Do you mean shred?
Never heard of shread..
Anyways shred is part of coreutils.
You should install pkgtools btw, it contains pkgfile which lets you
know what package provides.

Yes I did, I found that I was just typing it wrong and the "shread" that I have on my system is something I wrote a long time ago and it confused me. Sorry for the noise and thanks for your help.
