Search installed packages on Slackware (and derivatives), and find which
package contains a given file. Reads the package database in
`/var/log/packages`.

```
is_installed <item>               # search package names for <item>
is_installed file-search <item>   # search file contents of every package for <item>
is_installed info <item>          # less the manifest of the single match (lists candidates if many)
is_installed help                 # show help
```

## Install
