Re: /usr/pkg cleanup, files not owned by any package

From: Mayuresh <mayuresh%acm.org@localhost>
I do not know how this would have happened, but I find there are files on
my system under /usr/pkg, on which if I run pkg_info -F -e <filename> it
says they are not owned by any package.
I'd just like to remove those files that are not owned by any package to
clean up /usr/pkg (at least bin and lib directories as at least in theory
etc can have files that are hand made).
Before you do that, make sure the pathname->package mapping has not
been corrupted -- it doesn't seem to be terribly robust, and I have
often seen it go wrong. You can use the `pkg_admin rebuild' command
to regenerate it afresh from the installed packages.
