qfile --orphans needs to take input a filename. So to go through your system looking for all orphaned files, you do something like find / -exec qfile -o '{}' \; ... which will produce a load of output that you don't want. So best to (1) restrict to smaller subdirectories (instead of /, do /usr/lib/perl5), and (2) redirect the output to disk. W -- Willie W.
