Just bear in mind that some of the leaves will be required for building other ports. Whilst they can be safely removed, it might save time to leave them. Personally, I think pkg_cutleaves has it about right, anything more automated may lead to nasty surprises. Such systems have no reliable way of knowing whether users are making direct use of a port that was originally installed as a dependency. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
