Hello, Im the author of rmlint, a tool to remove several types of waste from your filesystem. It is especially good for finding duplicate files and directories. I (and a co-developer) rewrote rmlint (version now is 2.0.0) and merged it into the master branch a few days ago. The new version has many improvements concerning speed and accuracy (and also somewhat better code quality :). I briefly tested it on a friend's FreeBSD box and it compiles and runs just fine - although some optimizations were disabled. The biggest difference concerning compilation: It uses scons now. Also a note: the master branch is considered to be stable, all dangerous action happens in the develop branch now. Proper releases will be made too after gathering a small amount of patches. You can find the documentation here: http://rmlint.rtfd.org Code can be found in the usual place: https://github.com/sahib/rmlint I wrote a little bit more about the changes here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=191247 The last package was done by Jesse Smith (jessefrgsmith@yahoo.ca), but he told me would like to give it to someone else due to time constraints. So... anyone up for it? :) Regards, Christopher
