Forgive me if this solution was not mentioned. # cd /var/db/pkg # pkg_delete * Now that pkg_delete can delete things in the right order, this is the easiest way to mass delete ports. If you only want to kill gnome ports then: # cd /var/db/pkg # pkg_delete gnome* (but you'll still have to manually delete some stuff and repeat). -- Matthew Thyer Phone: +61 8 8259 7249 Science Corporate Information Systems Fax: +61 8 8259 5537 Defence Science and Technology Organisation, Edinburgh PO Box 1500 Edinburgh South Australia 5111 IMPORTANT: This email remains the property of the Australian Defence Organisation and is subject to the jurisdiction of section 70 of the CRIMES ACT 1914.
