Everything. All that are there are docs. This is the list of files in the package: http://packages.debian.org/wheezy/all/python-eyed3/filelist However, I think the problem may be your use of dpkg. The "-S" argument searches for a filename. So you're trying to find files named "python-eyed3"; note that the files you've missed simply used "eyeD3". If you wanted a list of files in a package, you should use "dpkg -L" (if the package is installed) or "apt-file show" (if you have apt-file installed and updated). > > Of course, I could file a bug, but can anyone think of a legit reason to do > that? > -- > Carl Fink nitpicking@nitpicking.com > > Read my blog at blog.nitpicking.com.
