We have a HTML report which lists all packages that could/should be rebuilt, and packages which can be deleted: http://buildfarm.opencsw.org/obsolete-pkgs/ As far as deleting stubs with no revdeps, I pull data from the URL above and pass them to safe_remove_package.py: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7949945/ It doesn't run automatically, I'd be a bit concerned to let a shell script loose with a chainsaw against our catalog. We could extend the program which generates these reports - any volunteers? :-) https://buildfarm.opencsw.org/source/xref/opencsw/csw/mgar/gar/v2/lib/python/find_obsolete_pkgs.py Maciej
