Paludis sometimes does not uninstall libs. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use paludis for world updates a lot of times 2. run "findlibcruft.sh" from http://www.gentooforum.de/artikel/18715/bereinigung-veralteter-libs.html (You need "equery" from app-portage/gentoolkit for findlibcruft.sh) Actual Results: You find a lot of libraries that are not assignet to any package Expected Results: No cruft should be found.

I found out the reason for the cruft on my system. Paludis does not remove files modified by prelink. :( Paludis say at remove: --- [!md5 ] /usr/bin/unix2dos --- [!md5 ] /usr/bin/dos2unix What is the best way to remove all cruft files? I use paludis now 1 Month for daily updates and prelink as cron job. Assume I have a lot of cruft on my system ~( How I can activate prelinking support for paludis? How I can safely update current installed and prelinked packages at the next time?
Still valid with 0.82.0? Maybe it's an upstream "feature" :/
Sorry, I cannot retest anymore because I am back to portage.
good choice
