Description Mark Rosenstand 2005-05-22 09:15:15 UTC

This little script deletes all unreferenced distfiles (like portsclean -DD does on FreeBSD, and apt-get clean (I think) on Debian GNU/Linux). Feel free to include it in gentoolkit or whatever.

There's a python implementation that works the same and is much faster. Check it
