Log:
New port: sysutils/pkg-orphan A console utility for managing unreferenced FreeBSD packages
pkg-orphan is a console utility for managing orphan, i.e.
unreferenced FreeBSD packages. It finds all or selected
orphans and lets the user choose which ones to remove and
which ones to keep. It maintains a keep-list file, so
previously kept packages will be skipped automatically. In
batch mode, all packages, not present in the keep-list are
either deleted or kept in the list.
Since orphan packages are usually much fewer than non-orphan
ones, it can be useful for quickly finding and deleting
unused packages, even on a system with hundreds of them
installed.
Features:
- interactive and batch modes
- maintains a kept package list, to avoid asking for the same package again
- can delete packages recursively, but without deleting shared dependencies or
previously kept packages
- the keep-list file does not contain package versions, so upgrades generally
don't require editing of the file
