In-Reply-To: Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-ports@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Another comment: on my system, most of the "Only on filesystem" files are actually symlinks which are installed by @exec statements in the package PLIST. These are clearly a problem for this kind of consistency checking tool - perhaps in the long run we should have a way to describe symlinks in PLISTs. In the meantime, just reporting if the file is a symlink would help to differentiate these.
