	Guys,

	Can anybody suggest ascript means to rm -i a whole slew of
	packages I am collection in /usr/ports/packages/All/?

	On some of my i686's I have collected as many as three versions 
	of some *tbz files.   Other than doing this by-hand on four
	boxens, I'd have automate.  pkgdb -F will ask if the user wants
	to delete (the earlier) of two packages with an [n].  I'd rather
	not reinvent the wheel.  

	(I *thought* I was nearly finished updating this machine;
	suddenty I've got 50 new ones!! )

	tia,

	gary
