When you say delete.. do you mean it whacks the file on the disk or some other copy... Looking at the files.. my entire home directory is considered to be in an invalid context. I am not sure I want those files deleted.. And I am not sure /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.2.9 /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.1-1.so.2 /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.2.7.2 /usr/lib/libsmbclient.so.0 /usr/lib/sendmail /usr/lib/libboost_signals.so.1 /usr/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework.so.1 /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive /usr/lib/libboost_thread.so.1 /usr/lib/libkrbafs.so.0 /usr/lib/libboost_filesystem.so.1 would be good to kill.. I wouldnt mind losing all of /etc/gconf :). Is there anything else that can be done? -- Stephen J Smoogen. Professional System Administrator
