>Description:
the entry for pkg_info -F says:
-F Interpret any pkg-name given as filename, and translate it to a
package name using the package database. This can be used to
query information on a per-file basis, e.g. in
conjunction with
the -e flag to find out which package a file belongs
to.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
Everything beyond the first sentence is extraneous and always leads to me
trying "pkg_info -eF /path/to/filename" which doesn't work. Just delete the
second sentence as it makes no sense.
