Hi there, Another idea I forget to suggest in my post last week was a mode for pkg_delete similar to -F, excepct for it works in the other direction, but stops if it finds other packages which need the candidate.
for example: package A is some low level text manipulation library. package B is a music player. Depends upon A. package C is another library which deals with http requests. Depends upon A. package D is a web browser depends upon C. pkg_delete -F prune D Should delete package D and C too, but stop at A as package B requires it. Hopefully that makes sense. Thoughts? -- Best Regards Edd --------------------------------------------------- http://students.dec.bournemouth.ac.uk/ebarrett
