Message-ID: <20030212202327.GH522@xtanbul> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.3i Sender: owner-freebsd-hackers@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk List-ID: List-Archive: (Web Archive) List-Help: (List Instructions) List-Subscribe: List-Unsubscribe: X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Basically, I suspect I have some dead pre-5.x libs rotting in my tree. I would like to cleanup /usr/lib and /usr/bin to get rid of old binaries. Is the /usr/obj directory self-contained? Does it need a lot of stuff outside of it? I know base bootstrap tools are builded in /usr/obj, but what is needed in order to be able to call them? I'm having a lot of weird problems here I suspect are due to stray files (see below for references). If I could, I'd just bust /usr/lib and /usr/bin and (why not!) /bin and /sbin.. What's the limit? How much damage can you inflict to the distro and still be able to recover with a installworld? Thanks, A.
