Hi Marcin,
just a short note: unfortunately i lack the time to bother about such
enhancements. But i wouldn't mind applying a patch.
On the other hand: why should it be considered a problem if cruft reports
files as missing? And why should localepurge solve what cruft can't handle?
Disclaimer: i never ever used cruft.
Thanks, P. *8^)
