Is there a LINT script to keep the /distfiles coincide with the New updated /ports, and at least move the old stuff into a /distfiles/old directory so I can deal with them, may be delete or move to ftp server. If no such magic LINT exists what do I need to know to create one, I mean the shell script should get a list of current distfiles, I think from /ports/INDEX then compares each file in /distfiles with INDEX, if doesnot belonng to it move it to /old, but such script must keep in mind that some ports keep their files in subdirectories of /distfiles. Help please. Thanks. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
