Recently we installed one package, but couldn’t understood which all files it installed on Ubuntu. You can use the command as,
$ dpkg-query -L PACKAGE_NAMESo, lets say, you want to identify which are files “openssh-server” package installed, then run the command as below,
$ dpkg-query -L openssh-server/.
