[PLUG] ls listing with apt package column

[Paul Heinlein]

I'll note that you need to be very careful about which directories you 
scan for package ownership.

   * /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin and /usr/sbin should be OK
   * /usr/include should be OK

On the other hand, /lib, /usr/lib and the various lib32 and lib64 
alternatives will have all sorts of symlinks that are created at 
installation time and not owned by a package. It's also the place 
where stuff like locally built CPAN or Python modules might show up 
unless you're extra careful.

/usr/share is so big (over 30,000 files on Debian machine used for 
development) that it wouldn't surprise me to see non-package stuff 
lost in there -- though it'd be sort of interesting to find out.

Anyway, be careful where you look...
