Not everyone has it installed, or wants to. To the original poster: yes, you can. Mind you, I'm not sure it's the most efficient way - since I have "portupgrade" installed, I prefer portsclean. Indeed. If you set WRKDIRPREFIX you can merely rm -r $WRKDIRPREFIX/ports. The distfiles can be a bit more difficult to deal with in a sane manner without some sort of add-on tool. -- -- ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"

Better approach would be using portsclean (it's in portupgrade package) - you can clean stale `work' dirs, unreferenced distfiles, etc. with it. And to just clean stale `work' dirs you can use something like `rm -rf /usr/ports/*/*/work'. HTH, Yuri pgpAKwi3t7Uea.pgp Description: PGP signature
