I wonder what you and Jacub mean with this. Did any of you read the
example script I attached to my mail[1]. It implements what you are
writing above. Some testing would be nice.
I somehow afraid that my cut-n-pasto in item 1. where I said
'rm -rf ${MAIN_SOURCE_DIR}/<expression>' (=old, outdated, wrong)
might have lead to the confusion. Please forget this and read
'find ... -delete' (=what I intended to write)
(as it is realised inside the code ...)
Kind regards
Andreas.
