Hello, |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
I've been wondering about writing a cruft detecting script.. The basic |
| 7 |
idea would be: |
| 8 |
* Produce a list of every file that Portage claims responsibility for on |
| 9 |
the current system (ie. the results of qpkg -l `qpkg -I`) |
| 10 |
* Produce a list of every file in the system (ie. find /) |
| 11 |
* Remove the first set from the second |
| 12 |
* Whatever's left is 'cruft' |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
The above needs to be tweaked so that find doesn't look in areas that |
| 15 |
are not used for system things, eg. /home, /tmp etc. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
Has anyone written something like this, and does anyone have any reason |
| 18 |
why something like this wouldn't work or be useful? |
| 19 |
|

Cheers, |
| 21 |
