Oops, my fault: It should read "packages the deinstalled 'leaf' packages
depend(ed) on". It just invokes pkg_deinstall with '-R'. Thanks for the
hint, I've corrected the man page (see attached patch); the script does
the right thing, though. ;)
Stefan,
occasionally confusing 'pkg_deinstall -R' and 'pkg_deinstall -r'
