>Description:
The default value of the daily_clean_disks_files variable is sen in the /etc/defaults/periodic.conf as "[#,]* .#* a.out *.core *.CKP .emacs_[0-9]*", so 100.clean-disks removes all *.core files. However some software like lang/cmucl and lang/sbcl contains vitally important for their functionality *.files (for examlpe, /usr/local/lib/cmucl/lib/lisp.core), that are being removed daily.
>How-To-Repeat:
Install lang/sbcl or lang/cmucl and run daily periodic script with daily_clean_disks_enable="YES" set after daily_clean_disks_days=3 days.
