You can safely remove them. > /usr/lib/libisc.a > /usr/lib/libisc.so -> libisc.so.1 > /usr/lib/libisc.so.1 Old libisc from BIND 8. BIND 9 doesn't use it, but some ports may want it. You should keep it around until those ports are fixed. > /usr/lib/libkse.a > /usr/lib/libkse.so -> libkse.so.1 > /usr/lib/libkse.so.1 This library has been renamed. You can remove it. > /lib/geom/geom_concat.so.1 > /lib/geom/geom_label.so.1 > /lib/geom/geom_nop.so.1 > /lib/geom/geom_stripe.so.1 You can remove these. > /libexec/ld-elf.so.1 Do *not* remove this, or you will be very sorry you did. It is normal for ld-elf.so.1 to have a timestamp older than your latest build, because installworld only installs a new ld-elf.so.1 if it differs from the old one.
