The script to remove "packages wich are not needed by others" is not buggy, is just not fully automated. You MUST decide what packages delete.

Hello, Please could someone familiar with pkg_add(1) confirm whether the behavior I'm experiencing is normal? My mail server has many packages installed that I like to keep up to date using pkg_add -uiv However, pkg_add seems to get confused with regard to the versions of the packages. For instance, [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ $: pkg_add -uiv Error from http://openbsd.blueyonder.co.uk/pub/OpenBSD/3.9/packages/i386/: Successfully retrieved file. Candidates for updating clamav-0.88.2 -> clamav-0.88 clamav-0.88.2 Ambiguous: clamav-0.88.2 could be clamav-0.88 clamav-0.88.2 Choose one package 0: <None> 1: clamav-0.88 2: clamav-0.88.2 Your choice: 2 Candidates for updating curl-7.15.3 -> curl-7.15.1 curl-7.15.3 Ambiguous: curl-7.15.3 could be curl-7.15.1 curl-7.15.3 ..... Is this expected behavior? Also, previously on the list [A little script to remove packages don't needed] a script was posted to remove dependencies that are no longer required but was contested as buggy. What is the recommended way of doing this? Thanks for your time, Tom
