Hi, we already got the packages fdupes, rdfind, fslint, perforate for this purpose.[1] And there's a tool called duff[2], not yet packaged for Debian. I don't think we need another tool for this. And I don't think such basic tools should be written in a scripting language. [1] found by axi-cache search duplicate files [2] http://duff.sourceforge.net/ Thank you however for your initiative to contribute to Debian! If you have any questions, please just ask.
