Find the files related to a software

[dgtherock]

Hello Friends,
I have one doubt. I am doing a project related to system restore concept in linux. There i am planning to perform application wise rollback in case of failure!! Is there any way to figure out what are all the files used by an application in the system??

Hi and welcome to the forums,

I figure you'll be wanting apt-rdepends -- There's an overview of it over here --> http://www.ubuntugeek.com/how-to-check-package-dependencies-with-apt-rdepends-on-ubuntu.html
