Hallo,

I have a small question, but it is important for me to know.  I had been using my system for a long time, and without portupgrading my ports.  So, right now I have three versions of gettext, different iconv libraries and utils (biconv and iconv), QT toolkits of several versions - all with overlapping files in +CONTENTS, so I cant just pkg_delete them.

So my question is:  can I do this:

1) Backup all I needed ~/.app_i_use/ directories
2) Backup all I needed /usr/local/etc/* and /usr/local/etc/rc.d/*
3) rm -fr /usr/local/*
4) Backup mine /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XF86Config
5) rm -fr /usr/X11R6/
6) rm -fr /var/db/pkg/*

And start with clean, base system again, just after installing FreeBSD from the beginning??

This is very important for me to know how I can remove EVERYTHING that got on my hardrive from ports, and not to touch BASE system at all.

Thank you all in advance.
