Hi,

I decided to give portmaster a try to get rid of ${PORTSDIR}/INDEX*db
and /var/db/pkg/pkgdb.db.  It works quite nice, but IMO there is a
inconsistency in the -d option:

after vim got updated from 7.0.x to 7.0.66, portmaster -a -d deleted
vim/vim-6.4.tar.bz2 (which is still an up-to-date distfile for vim6, but
older than vim/vim-7.0.tar.bz2), but not vim/6.4.*

I don't have vim6 installed, so the -d option should either not delete
vim-6.4.tar.bz2 or remove all of vim6's distfiles, including vim/6.4.*
If someone has both vim6 and vim7 installed, would portmaster -d also
delete vim-6.4.tar.bz2 ?

Regards,
Rene
