Message-ID: <20030120105343.GA23663@raq15.uk2net.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.4i Sender: owner-freebsd-ports@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.org What's the correct procedure for dealing with "shared" directories, possibly created by a port, in the pkg-plist? A specific case is the irc/pircbot port, according to the URL below there are two directories (/usr/local/share/java, /usr/local/share/java/classes) which are left behind. http://bento.freebsd.org/errorlogs/i386-4-full-logs/extras.html#pircbot-1.0.2.log What should I do with these directories? If I dirrm them there's a chance they'll fail because another port might have put files in there. Unless I'm missing something obvious, like a "dirrm if empty" or the package management stuff is clever enough to know about it. Cheers, Tim.
