# Deprecation notice

This project is deprecated in favor of `apt-file` utility. Package `whatprovides` and database file will be removed.

You can install `apt-file` package with next command:
```
pkg install apt-file
```

Depending on Termux version (< 0.118), you may need to fix permission of one file in $PREFIX (known issue):
```
chmod +x $PREFIX/lib/apt/apt-helper
```

Usage example:
```
~ $ apt-file update
~ $ apt-file list termux-tools
termux-tools: /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/chsh
termux-tools: /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/cmd

pkg install git gawk gzip make sqlite
git clone https://github.com/termux/whatprovides
cd whatprovides
make install

### Usage:

* List files of any package. For eg. aapt

```sh
$ whatprovides -p aapt
aapt: /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/aapt
aapt: /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/zipalign
aapt: /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib/libandroid-base.so
aapt: /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib/libandroid-cutils.so
aapt: /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib/libandroid-fw.so
aapt: /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib/libandroid-utils.so
aapt: /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib/libandroid-ziparchive.so

```sh
$ whatprovides $PREFIX/share/aapt
aapt: /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/share/aapt
