I just made a typo in a glob pattern for a pkg delete -g (no -a and no force) and mistakenly then selected Y, leading to partial partial system destruction before I stopped it

(The glob pattern was expected to match a lot of port-packages, more than shows in a window in the context.) I really wish that the likes of: # pkg delete -r FreeBSD-ports -g . . . was supported in order to avoid mistakes being much bigger than they need to be. Also of note: it started deleting the system before deleting any port-packages, even though the port-apcagkes depend on the system. === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com
