Hi there,

Redirecting this mail here as per Kris Kennaway's suggestion... :)

While looking for a perl substitute for
/usr/ports/sysutils/portupgrade/, I came across Lukas Ertl's
portupgrade.pl (http://mailbox.univie.ac.at/~le/portsupgrade.html) - One
feature however that it didn't have was the ability to remove old
distfiles.

I sat down and quickly hacked together a small script to clean up
old/unused files from /usr/ports/distfiles. It's probably not the
prettiest code any of you have ever seen, but I've used it with great
success so far.

I'm not sure if this is of any use to anyone, but I'd certainly like any
feedback regarding this script, and perhaps it can help the FreeBSD
community? Please CC me with flames/comments/suggestions/
the_right_place_to_send_this?? as I'm not subscribed to this list.

man portsclean
It's part of portupgrade.

Yes, but this was written specifically because I didn't want to install
portpugrade. I wanted something similar that didn't rely on Ruby. :)

Maybe Ruby should be part of the base system. ;-)

/usr/ports/Tools/scripts/distclean.sh (doesn't even require Perl)

Pfft. Why not Python, Java, Tcl, C# or any other interpreted language
out there?

I'd prefer to remove Perl from the base system rather than add yet more
cruft to it. Some people have already done this by installing
lang/perl5 - now all we need is syspkg's so we can uninstall Perl from
the base system automatically.
