Howdy,
New Arch Linux user here. Can anyone tell me where I might be able to locate which package
via pacman to install to have the /bin/hostname file get installed?
I've installed fresh today and it's not there. I re-installed via a repo that a colleague of mine
used last night where it is installed. I used the same repo that he used last night and re-installed
a second time today and it's still not there. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Pete

We figured it out. It's currently in "net-tools", which I thought that I tried to install prior before
posting here. I know that it's in transition and will wind up in "coreutils" eventually.
Sorry to bother everyone, I'm going underground for the time being ...
Pete

Install pkgtools
pkgfile foo
hostname, btw, is available in net-tools - which has been deprecated.
There's no such thing as a stupid question, but there sure are a lot of inquisitive idiots !
