Right? >Ciao >Vittorio Delete them using the paths in the messages from pkg. > [5/5] Deleting files for python35-3.5.1_3: 0% > pkg: /usr/local/bin/2to3-3.5 different from original checksum, not > removing etc. I.e. % rm /usr/local/bin/2to3-3.5 The cache directory is where the package source files are stored, deleting the source package files will have essentially no effect. If you were to re-install a package, and even if the current version was still the same, the only effect will be that the package will be downloaded again rather than being used from the cache. --- Dale R.
