Hello All,

I could finally make sense of my own message from January 1st.

Please see below.

dmake clean does already wipe the $INPATH directories away, and that
is right. On my system, $INPATH is "unxlngx6.pro"

The directories that are _not_ wiped away, and should be deleted as
well, are those named $OUTPATH, that is $INPATH without the ending
".pro".

The script solenv/bin/download_external_dependencies.pl that is called
by bootstrap, in function ProvideSpecialTarball searches for the epm
and dmake executables in $SOLARENV/$OUTPATH

This is enough IMHO to justify wiping $OUTPATH directories as well as
$INPATH directories.

I will open a PR and merge it after a few days if no one objects.

Best regards,
