hello!

i was wondering whether there is a more convienient way to resolve a
file<->port search, than doing something like this

find /usr/ports -name pkg-plist -print0 | xargs -0 grep <file>

it would be nice if you can tell me a way to acheive something like

foo at bar~>pkg_search libtodoconduit.so.0
deskutils/kdepim3/

so i enter the file i am looking for and get the corresponding port as a
result.

and i dont need to have kdepim3 installed - it should work for the whole
portstree.

greets, josef
