Just so I know how bad a move this is... ;-)

In doing some fink functions, I see a number of warnings regarding fields 
occuring more than once in various .info files.  They looked like older 
versions of the files, and I saw someone say that it might be okay to delete 
the offending files and do another update from the cvs server.

I noticed when I deleted a file like gettext-0.10.40-3.info and did the 
update, it didn't get replaced.  But I deleted gettext-0.10.40-6.info and 
redid the update, and it was replaced...

A) is/was it safe to delete the .info files that are giving those errors 
after doing an index?

B) do .info files keep accumulating over time?  Is there a reason for that, 
or am I doing something wrong?

Thank you!

I heard Microsoft improved the time it takes to reboot Windows XP.
I wonder why this is a touted feature?...hmm...
