OK, call me anally retentive if you must but ... Debian has a utility called deborphan that sniffs out packages (usually libraries) that no longer have anything else depending on them and that can be removed. AFAIK it doesn't actually delete them, it just tells you what they are. Is there a way to do the same thing on Mandrake 9 or does this rely on something in debian's dpkg and/or the .deb format?
I know they don't do any actual harm just lying there on the hd, but (a) sooner or later they will waste my bandwith when an upgrade becomes available and (b) I just like to run a tight ship. TIA Michel
