Description Daniel Kaplun 2006-03-09 16:19:31 UTC 
It would be great if there was an option in Portage that would delete configuration files when packages are unmerged. For example, merging xinetd saves /etc/xinetd.conf, and unmerging it leaves the file there, but if the flag was set, the configuration file would be removed.
