sysclean(8)Contributed by rueda on from the keep-it-clean! dept.
Many
OpenBSD
sysadmins
find the
sysclean(8)
port
useful for removing obsolete files following upgrades.
Sebastien Marie (semarie@),
the
author
of sysclean(8),
has written a
piece
giving an under-the-hood
look at the operation of this handy utility.
It's well worth reading for those interested in understanding
how it works!

Another sys* command. Uh oh, is it a sign of getting old when I'm starting to be careful around sys* commands? sysmerge, sysupgrade, syspatch, and now this one. I wonder if the idea of a unification of sys* commands is a good one? A wrapper sys perhaps with a detailed online usage? Otherwise I'm all for it, other than it exposing my age.
