There is a nice little script to remove all outdated distfiles, that is all files that do not belong to any installed package. It has been recommended on this list before and for me it works really great: Just look at http://evvl.rustedhalo.net/software/gentoo/ and the script distclean. distclean v0.3 Usage: distclean [-h,--help] [-d,--delete] [-p,--pretend] [-m,--move dir] [-q ,--quiet] --nospinner --help (-h short option) Shows this help screeen. --delete (-d short option) Deletes the outdated file(s) in the distfiles directory. --pretend (-p short option) Lists the outdated file(s) in the distfiles directory. --move dir (-m dir short option) Move the outdated file(s) to the given directory. --quiet (-q short option) Just list the outdated files, no extra junk. --nospinner Turns off the cute little spinner. -- Andreas
