There's a check-old (and a check-old-libs) target that makes just such a list.

Hello all, make delete-old (took a long time to do by hand) and make delete-old-libs (went rather quickly) but bash needed to be rebuilt while things were still running.. (quick try to login remotely showed that libcurses had changed.. ) /libexec/ld-elf.so.1: Shared object libncurses.so.6 not found, required by -bash and libc, libm, libthr, libcrypt, libcrypto.. etc.. libchk (sysutils/libchk) showed almost every port has issues.. ;) sudo, daemontools, exim, lighttpd, vim.. etc.. so I will have to rebuild everything.. just wanted to share my .02 in case someone else does this as well.. Thanks FreeBSD Team for another successful Release. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
