Command to list installed applications and the corresponding install path for each

[sspp]

Hi,

Could you please let me know the command to list the installed applications and the corresponding install path for each application.
I am expecting the output format to be in this way:
java /usr/
apache /home/myapachedir

Thanks in advance.

that isn't usually how applications are installed in linux, usually the binaries go in /usr/bin and libraries in /usr/lib, etc, its not like in windows where you have specific directories for each application

if you want to list packages installed, that would be distro specific, and would require us to know what distro you have to help

debian-based would be dpkg -l
redhat-based would be rpm -qa
