Outdated lib*_p.a files

2005-05-09 Thread Jason C. Wells 
I run a homegrown script after upgrades to find outdated binaries.  I have 
a bunch of files name /usr/lib/lib*_p.a that predate my recent upgrade to 
5.4-RELEASE.  What are these?  Can they be deleted without harm?

Thanks,
Jason C. Wells

Those are versions of libraries built with profiling code.  If you have
NOPROFILE set in your make.conf, you should remove them from /usr/lib.
