Richard,
 What I've been doing of late is installing patches with the '-d' option
so as not to backup to /var/sadm/pkg/SUN*/save and I cleaned up the same
with rm -rf /var/sadm/pkg/SUN*/save/* Someone please correct me if I am
doing something unspeakable. =)


Tom

Hi,
I got loads of "Send a summary on this" but no solutions.
So here it is again.

After applying many patch clusters /var/sadm/pkg is getting very large.
How can I clean out the old patch stuff and leave the last pkg patch files
so 
the current patch could be backed out.
Someone must have a nice little script to do this :-)

Cheers
Richard.
