Due to some slowdown in updating texlive, I've looked up duplicate files inside packages.
Most packages are okay, a few are not... The following list shows the maximum number of times a file appears in a given package (just looking at its checksum) Note sdcc, which stores a crazy number of identical .deps files (all 8 bytes long) I've stopped the list at count 50, but there are still a large number of duplicated files. (we're talking actual copies on the filesystem, pkg_create will recognize symlinks and hardlinks and package them accordingly) Those are not necessarily wrong, but it would be lovely if some of the maintainers could look them up (myself included thanks to stepmania). Right now, updating sdcc is probably way slower than deleting and reinstalling it ;) sdcc-3.8.0p0.tgz: 6402 ansible-5.8.0.tgz: 840 texlive_texmf-full-2021.tgz: 663 google-cloud-sdk-386.0.0.tgz: 588 coq-8.13.2p2.tgz: 580 lumina-1.4.0pl1p6.tgz: 381 mate-utils-1.26.0p0.tgz: 336 ruby27-gettext-3.2.2.tgz: 334 ruby31-gettext-3.2.2.tgz: 334 py3-vsphere-automation-7.0.3.2.tgz: 267 routersploit-3.4.0p2.tgz: 240 py3-opengl-3.1.3b2p3.tgz: 207 py-opengl-3.1.3b2p3.tgz: 207 mate-panel-1.26.0p0.tgz: 193 logstash-7.10.0v0.tgz: 185 qcad-3.24.3.0p2.tgz: 178 stepmania-5.0.12v0.tgz: 178 ruby30-passenger-6.0.4.tgz: 167 ruby31-passenger-6.0.4.tgz: 167 egoboo-2.8.1p0.tgz: 137 tuxpaint-stamps-20211125.tgz: 135 pycharm-2022.1.1.tgz: 134 texlive_texmf-minimal-2021.tgz: 121 javahelp-2.0.05p3.tgz: 121 granite-5.5.0.tgz: 121 py3-jedi-0.18.1.tgz: 120 mariadb-tests-10.6.7p0v1.tgz: 109 mate-control-center-1.26.0p2.tgz: 108 stellarium-0.22.1.tgz: 105 kdoctools-5.91.0.tgz: 103 odoo-15.0.20220427p0.tgz: 102 mate-calc-1.26.0.tgz: 102 kibana-7.10.0.tgz: 102 atril-1.26.0p0.tgz: 102 arduino-esp32-2.0.1.tgz: 101 megaglest-data-3.13.0p1.tgz: 98 warmux-11.04.1p9.tgz: 95 py3-botocore-1.26.0.tgz: 94 py3-pandas-1.3.4p0.tgz: 94 nextcloud-23.0.4.tgz: 92 neverball-data-1.6.0v0.tgz: 92 nextcloud-21.0.9.tgz: 92 nextcloud-22.2.7.tgz: 92 heimdal-devel-docs-7.7.0p0.tgz: 83 mate-power-manager-1.26.0p1.tgz: 82 epic4-2.10.5p3.tgz: 81 fillets-ng-1.0.1p2.tgz: 81 yaru-22.04.4p0.tgz: 80 qt6-qtdeclarative-6.3.0.tgz: 80 py3-sympy-1.7.1p0.tgz: 79 mate-system-monitor-1.26.0p0.tgz: 74 solr-8.11.1p0.tgz: 70 librenms-22.4.1v0.tgz: 68 ghidra-9.1.2p1.tgz: 67 widelands-1.0.tgz: 67 nagios-web-4.4.6p0-chroot.tgz: 63 nagios-web-4.4.6p0.tgz: 63 fs-uae-launcher-3.0.5p0.tgz: 60 os-test-0.000041p1.tgz: 58 chromium-101.0.4951.67.tgz: 55 unknown-horizons-2019.1p0.tgz: 54 iridium-2022.04.100.0p1.tgz: 53 py3-scikit-learn-1.0.2.tgz: 53 botan2-2.19.1p1.tgz: 53 electron-8.2.0p5.tgz: 53 libreoffice-java-7.3.3.2v0.tgz: 52 qt6-qtbase-6.3.0.tgz: 51 [...]
