So, e.g., you can describe packages that are incompatible with each other or with packages that your document uses. You even can report about various class files. Such files also enter listfiles. [related package: zwgetfdate] 'myfilist.sty' uses this so listfiles need not show files that were used, rather just files you want to know about. In a TeX script, you can choose some files and their order. Their names can be output into a plain text file with their dates, version ids, and one-line descriptions, formatted in the way listfiles does it after a LaTeX run.
