what happened to xwininfo??

I updated something last week that broke my Xstartup script. I have this line

# Get rid of all clients started by Xsetup
xwininfo -root -children | grep '  0x' | cut -d' ' -f6 | xargs -n1 xkill -id

The line is supposed to kill the xclock and xmessage windows after a successfull login through xdm. But it stopped working a little bit ago. Now, the xwininfo command is not on my system, so the xclock is still showing when Fluxbox starts. I get a hit using apropos xwininfo, but I no longer have the executable or the man page on my system. What happened to it?

Why not just not start them in the first place?

It's in xorg-utils.

Thank you! Somehow, I must have accidentally uninstalled that package.

You can always find out where to get a file by using "pkgfile" from the "pkgutils" package.
