Dear All,

With introduction in FreeBSD new pkg utility I can not figure out one
thing (maybe more that one thing...): how to find out which package some
particular file came with. In other words, an equivalent of the following
command we used on FreBSD 9 and earlier:

pkg_info -W /usr/local/libexec/cups/backend/lpd

- which would give the name of the package the file
/usr/local/libexec/cups/backend/lpd came with. How do we do the same on
FreeBSD 10?

Thanks.
Valeri
