Hi,
Does IPS pkg provides an autoremove function or similar? Is there any
way to quickly remove orphaned packages (automatically installed as
dependencies and no longer required) and leaf packages (manually
installed but not serving as dependency for any package). I thoroughly
went through pkg man page, but apparently found nothing useful under
`pkg uninstall` section; on the other hand `pkg avoid` seems not suited
to accomplish this task, requiring one to know an unneeded dependency
package name beforehand
Any hint would be greatly appreciated,
Yours sincerely,
Vincenzo
