I've been working on a script, and am having a bit of trouble producing
reasonable output. First, the script removes all leaf packages that are
not listed in a configuration file and are not required by any of those
packages, or by any package that those packages require, etc.

I just installed 5.2.1-RELEASE on a RAID1 setup (atacontrol using
Sil0680 chipset), and was in the process of transfering files from my
old server. However, I'm having an issue with the md5 sum of a file.

To expand on the question in the subject: How does one tell `man` not to
automatically format man pages to 80 columns? I'm looking for a fairly
easy way to do this, or confirmation it would involve internal
gymnastics I may not be willing to perform.
The quick fixes which did not work: I ensured

I've set a very few commands as NOPASSWD in sudo, and run them from my
normal user's crontab. I've seen some examples of crontab's that use
nice, but none that use sudo and nice. That led me to a few questions.
