Recognised values for Dist1, Dist2, etc. are "archlinux", "cygwin", "debian", "fedora", "fink", "freebsd", "gentoo", "mandriva", "macports", "netbsd", "openbsd", "opensuse", "slackware", "sourcemage", and "ubuntu". pkgname Package name to query for FILES
whohas uses various files in ~/.whohas to cache package lists for some distributions. SEE ALSO
