Actually, the man page doesn't mention -f; you have to run emaint --help to find it. This is the first such case I've come across. Now that I've run emaint -f movebin and emaint -f moveinst, eix-test-obsolete takes a fraction of the time it used to. I'm now trying to decide whether to be suspicious or relieved. ;) -- Rgds Peter
