Gentoolkit is a collection of tools used by Gentoo Linux to administer and develop the Portage package management system. The tools are managed and installed by Portage itself; on a Funtoo Linux system one can install gentoolkit by issuing the following command:
root # emerge gentoolkit
The tools are split into two related packages: gentoolkit and gentoolkit-dev. As with the rest of Portage they are written in Python. Gentoolkit provides:
- eclean
- enalyze
- equery
- eread
- euse
- glsa-check
- revdep-rebuild
equery
Equery is a tool that displays information about the installed packages on the system. equery is based on a system of modules, , running it with out arguments displays a list of options
root # equery
equery b
Running equery with the b flag is useful to determine which package a file comes from.
root # equery b /usr/lib/libpam.so * Searching for /usr/lib/libpam.so ... sys-libs/pam-1.1.8-r2 (/usr/lib64/libpam.so)
equery f
Running equery with the f flag is useful to show all installed files from a package.
root # equery f domination * Searching for domination ... * Contents of games-board/domination-1.1.1.5: /usr /usr/games /usr/games/bin /usr/games/bin/domination ...
glsa-check
Glsa-check shows what potential vulnerabilities your system has.
root # glsa-check -l [A] means this GLSA was marked as applied (injected), [U] means the system is not affected and [N] indicates that the system might be affected. 201310-15 [N] GNU Automake: Multiple vulnerabilities ( sys-devel/automake )
