Random tip. On a rpm based Linux system like Red Hat Enterprise Linux, Rocky, Fedora etc, you can find the rpm package that installed a certain file/binary with `rpm -qf /path/to/file`. This is an ancient way of doing that, but really fast, as it uses local info from the rpmdb :). I just used it to find out that the `/usr/sbin/ether-wake` command that I use to switch my homelab machines on via wake-on-LAN (WoL) magic packets lives in the `net-tools` rpm :)
