I've restarted the generation of the "List of files and directories
that do not match their mtree description" logs on bento in the hopes
of addressing some of the large problems in this area now that we've
got broken ports down to (hopefully) manageable and sustainable
levels.

KDE and GNOME appear to have significant problems in their pkg-plist
files that are causing hundreds of ports to be left with extra
directories after deinstallation.  These directories presumably need
to be listed in the pkg-plist where they are created.

For example, KDE includes (at least the following)

================================================================
list of extra files and directories in /usr/local
lib/perl5 extra
lib/kde3 extra
share/apps extra
share/autostart extra
share/config extra
share/icons extra
share/services extra
share/servicetypes extra
share/applnk extra

(See
e.g. http://bento.freebsd.org/errorlogs/i386-5-latest-logs/kdeutils-3.0.4_1.log )

And GNOME includes (at least)

================================================================
list of extra files and directories in /usr/X11R6
share/dict extra
share/emacs extra
share/java extra
share/misc extra
share/nls extra
share/sgml extra
share/skel extra
share/xml extra
man/de.ISO8859-1 extra
man/en.ISO8859-1 extra
etc/pam.d extra
sbin extra

Can anyone help in tracking these down?

Kris
