The delete-old target only removes static libs. Yes, they are libs,
but they are not used in a life system, they are only used while
developing. That's the reason why I didn't add "libraries" to the
description of the delete-old target. The delete-old-libs target
exists to remove shared libs, which you should not do unconditionally
on a system (make sure no ports uses them anymore).
For the check-old target there's no reason to split up the targets, as
you can list them unconditionally. For developing convenience I did
chose to have the check-old-XXX targets in Makefile.inc1 ("make -f
Makefile.inc1 TARGET" works just fine). I see no need to expose all
targets.
So please revert this or do a forced commit to provide a good reason
why they need to be exposed.
As your recent commits to the delete-old/check-old part created a lot
of mails and follow up commits because of them, I suggest to discuss
further changes to the targets before committing the changes.
Bye,
Alexander.
