Identify with swlist with which product a specific file was installed

[Rui Vilao]

Greetings,

Problem: I have a file (eg lint)

I want to know to which installed product it belongs.

With "swlist -l file" I get a listing of all Filesets and respective files.


Thanks in advance for your help,

Kind Regards,

Rui.

Try:
# swlist -l file |grep lint

For example:
# swlist -l file |grep envd
OS-Core.UX-CORE:/ etc/envd.conf
OS-Core.UX-CORE: /etc/rc.config.d/envd
OS-Core.UX-CORE: /sbin/init.d/envd
PHCO_20060.PHCO_20060: /usr/sbin/envd

this means that the OS-CORE fileset contains the command, but patch PHCO_20060 has updated the fileset.

Hi:

To add to Cheryl's response, if you want additional details, (e.g. installation date) add the -v flag to the swlist.

Cheryl and James,

Thanks a lot for your contribution.

With swlist -l file, I can find out the
relationship: fileset-file
But the question remains. How can I know to which installed product (output
of swlist) envd or lint.

#swlist -l file|grep 'lint'
C-Analysis-Tools.C-TOOLS: /opt/ansic/bin/lint
OS-Core.C-MIN: /usr/ccs/lib/lint
ProgSupport.PROG-AUX: /usr/ccs/lib/lint
ProgSupport.PROG-MIN: /usr/ccs/lib/lint

which means : PRODUCT.FILESET: FILE
So you have everything you need !

swlist will give you the answer, but this might be a little faster...

find /var/adm/sw/products -name INDEX -exec grep "/lint$" {} \; -print

note the leading "/" and trailing "$" (end of line) make the grep more reliable.

you should be able to tell the product name from the path returned from the print command.

the reason this works is that this is what swlist is really doing anyway, and you don't have the overhead of creating the swlist process and pushing the huge output of all the files on the system through a pipe.

you do, however, have to be root to do this, as the directory is not readable unless you are. 8-)

Marc and Greg,

Thanks a lot for your contribution!
However your answers are not totally correct.

I know that lint was installed with the products B3901BA, B3913CB and B3913DB:

B3901BA B.11.01.20 HP C/ANSI C Developer's B
undle for HP-UX 11.00 (S800)
B3913CB B.11.01.20 HP C++ Compiler (S800)
B3913DB C.03.25 HP aC++ Compiler (S800)


I want to know if I have other products that installed this executable.

"swlist -l file" returns the filesets and associated files...

I investigated and found out that the information I need can be retrieved using:

# swlist -l file -l bundle |grep "/lint"
