Hi All,
I know, perhaps, that the next question is not really slack
pertinent and it should be easy for you (but not for me.....).
Since I would like to compare all the names of the files
beginning from my / and the files listed in MANIFEST.bz2,
whot is the bash command to create a file with all the
dir/files ?
I would like, at least, just only the dir&file (like
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/doc/README).
Thank's for reply.

Andrea

Do you want to compare ownerships/permissions with those listed on your
system with those in MANIFEST.bz2? If so, I've written a perl script
that can do this:
<http://www.mark.ukfsn.org/nix/slackware/comparepkg.txt>
(You'll have bunzip2 the MANIFEST.bz2 file before use.)

If you want to find 'orphan' files that aren't listed in MANIFEST.bz2,
then perhaps this recent posting will help:

As root:
find / > /tmp/all-files.txt
(This will take some time.)

However, you may want to skip some directories like /home. man find has
details on how you can make find do this.

To skip the directories, use with the -type f parameter which will only
search for files, e.g.

find / -type f > /tmp/all-files.txt

Mark, Wong,
I thank You very much for your help.

Mark,
I don't know if this can help you

in MANIFEST:
drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2003-12-15 13:23:43 etc/cups/

and in the output:
File Permissions: /etc/cups/ is 0775 but 0755 in MANIFEST
<--------------------
Group Ownership: /etc/cups/ is gid 3 (sys) on system but gid
0 (root) in MANIFEST

Regards

Ok, this is saying the permissions of /etc/cups/ are 0775 on the system,
but 0755 in the MANIFEST file. The same difference is found on my
system. I'm not sure what causes it. (cups configuration?)

> Group Ownership: /etc/cups/ is gid 3 (sys) on system but gid
> 0 (root) in MANIFEST

It's interesting that your /etc/cups is owned by the sys group. I found
my /etc/cups to be with sys group ownerships also, but thought it was an
error on my part.

Hope you found the script useful.
