There's no tracking of obsoleted or removed options and no clever methods to clean them up. It's only when you remove the options with 'make rmconfig' and rewrite them again trough the options dialog the obsoleted ones will be gone. This is incorrect. There is a clever method available to clean these up. There is a script at Tools/scripts/redundant-opt-files.sh that is used to identify saved options that are identical to the default options. It also identifies option files for ports that don't exist. You can remove all the obsolete and redundant options files in a single command, e.g. "/usr/ports/Tools/scripts/redundant-opt-files.sh | xargs rm -rf" which I think is pretty clever. But then again, I am biased. Hmm, I may have misunderstood what Matthias was asking for. While Poudriere will not identify bad saved options files, ports-mgmt/synth will do this. One way to leverage this is to install synth and run "synth status everything" and all bad options files will be identified (printed to screen). John Is this new? Using synth-1.41 I get "Invalid port origin: everything".
sorry, the correct invocation is "synth status-everything". There is a man page (man 1 synth) as well.
