Do I have to do something else here? It seems like this discussion
cooled down a bit. Is the patch in review? Is the patch been
considered for inclusion? Are there any changes I can do to make more

There a couple of things I forgot to mention.
I found that a package can be marked as 'manually installed' if
'pkg_add' is ran with the name of the package, even though it is
already installed. Likewise, 'pkg_add -a' will set the package as
'automatically installed'.
It is a good idea to check fi
I have the first attempt of the dependencies deletion option. I
modified 'pkg_delete' to include an option -r that perform this task.
The main idea is to traverse the graph of package dependencies with
some kind of bfs algorithm. The queue is initialized with the original
packages to be removed. P

Then the information does exist. This is good. The only thing missing
now is the script that use this information for dependencies deletion.
I'll see what I can do.

Hello Guys,
I was wondering if there is some tool that delete the packages
specified along with their "deletable" dependencies. Deletable means
packages that pkg_add added automatically (as dependencies of the
installed one) and are not dependency of another package. This will
ensure (in most of t
