It amazes me the duplicative and competitive projects that occur in the FOSS community.
A prime example is the gnome nm applet and wicd. Another is ubuntu-eee and eeebuntu.
Again another is this Cruft remover and Ubucleaner. The author of Ubucleaner has already
successful created a script that performs this function correctly. A copy of this script
is attached. A web link is as follows:
Since FOSS is free, distributable, and modifiable, the only reason for this repeated
disregard for others' work who have correctly solved a problem is pride.
Hope this helps. Please review the script. To me it is clear that this is what Cruft remover
intends to do.
