Maintenance & System Cleaning
4 answers - 859 bytes -

I know of a few tools, but what is the best and simplest way to go about
maintenance & system cleaning?
Checking broken symlinks, broken dependencies installed and can be removed,
best way to uninstall pkgsrc compiled, to remove and clean everything,
either 'make deinstall', or 'pkg_delete', and if pkg_delete what would be
the best flags for this?
other thing does someone know how to code 'pkgclean' so it can run?:
'make clean-depends'
make clean seems ok, but it seems like it would be better if 'make
clean-depends' could be run also on all the /usr/pkgsrc/paths in case some
where missed after doing make install.
Did I miss anything else for keeping a tidy box? If so PLEASE share your
ideas, how we can all keep a nice clean BSD.
THANKS

If you tell what tools are using, one can suggest related one.

I have no idea what list you think you are connecting to, but Nabble's habit
of hijacking lists and misrepresenting their contents is getting to be quite
annoying. This is a mailing list for help with NetBSD.

What the heck are you talking about hijacking? I made a post for NetBSD
because I use NetBSD, I'm not hijacking any threads, sheesh.

Are you guys nutty are what? LL
I'm asking a NetBSD question and you guys post a link back to my post, hello
wakeup people, LL :)
So can someone please answer my question dealing with system cleaning and
maintenance as it relates to NetBSD, I'd l like to know if there is a way to
code "pkgclean" to do "make clean-depends"
THANKS
