Hi, I've grepped a little bit around and found 1528 .la files in pkg-plist's (the list is available at http://www.leidinger.net/FreeBSD/la-files). It's a lot even if only 2/3 are real libtool .la files. A major producer of this mess is kde: (10) netchild@ttyp2 % grep kde /tmp/la-files|wc -l 776 I expect them to take ~700k on disk. As long as you can't use USE_LIBTOOL (e.g. because we only have libtool 1.3.4 and no libtool 1.4), you at least can rm them in post-install if you don't have a better idea. I have a report from someone who has 134k of those useless (for us) files. Bye, Alexander. -- The three Rs of Microsoft support: Retry, Reboot, Reinstall. http://www.Leidinger.net Alexander @ Leidinger.net GPG fingerprint = C518 BC70 E67F 143F BE91 3365 79E2 9C60 B006 3FE7 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
