$ pacman -Fs pacman
core/pacman 4.2.1-1
    usr/bin/pacman
    usr/share/bash-completion/completions/pacman
extra/xscreensaver 5.32-1
    usr/lib/xscreensaver/pacman

$ pacman -Fo /usr/lib/libmpfr.so
/usr/lib/libmpfr.so is owned by testing/mpfr 3.1.3-1
/usr/lib/libmpfr.so is owned by core/mpfr 3.1.2.p11-1
