Does anyone have any good ways to find and remove old files after updating from source? (for example executables or libs which have either gone away or changed names). Something that would be useful would be to have a list of files which are installed from a vanilla install. When one installs a port, a +CONTENTS file is created in /var/db/pkg/foo. I couldn't find an equivelent thing for make installworld. Using that, I could compare with what's there now and examine the differences. Functionality to remove old files might be useful to add to mergemaster. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
