As demonstrated, you probably don't want to remove the old libraries. It is much better to do something like find /usr/lib -type f | xargs touch sleep 60 cd /usr/src make installworld You can now look for older stale (shared) libraries and then search /usr/local/bin for binaries that use those libraries. Note, the above doesn't work if you use "install -C" -- Steve To Unsubscribe: send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
