Description Imre Péntek 2008-04-01 09:17:19 UTC

# pwd
/etc/wpa_supplicant
# equery belongs ./wpa_supplicant.conf 
[ Searching for file(s) ./wpa_supplicant.conf in *... ]

but, if I thing rationally, if user issues command
# equery belongs ./wpa_supplicant.conf 
(s)he certainly thought about issuing (in this situation)
# equery belongs /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
it's just a little sense, a little intelligence into equery belongs functionality. Would be useful.

Reproducible: Always

May or may be not wanted by the user, so i'd close won't, but leaving it to the maintainer...

Certainly no harm in having this ability, as it doesn't affect anyone who doesn't try to use it.
