The Gentoo handbook is awesome. But every now and then, I encounter some tidbit that I really wish had been documented there. For instance, when I first encountered "eclean distfiles", I discovered that I had 8 gigs of useless out-dated package files on my system. I would like to suggest that this be added to the docs. Reproducible: Always
Yes, eclean is part of gentoolkit, the doc is here http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoolkit.xml but eclean is not documented.
You didn't look hard enough; eclean is already documented in the FAQ: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/faq.xml However, I did add a section on using eclean to the gentoolkit guide. Fixed; closing.
