Description
Does possible remove the man pages/directory from PBI packs? Or is really necessary to keep these directories.
That too would help a lot systems with a small hard discs :) as this other ticket already fixed http://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/2528

Man pages should be safe to remove, I'll add them to the exclude list. Though the way perl puts those under lib/ might make that a bit tougher to exclude them.
We could probably also remove include/ from PBIs as well but I'm not sure if anything relies on those being present.

I rebuilt and uploaded a new PBI for both squid (2.x) and quagga and the man pages appear to be gone as expected. Not doing a full rebuild yet, but as the PBIs are rebuilt they will have the man pages removed.

Nice!
Have you idea when next full rebuild run!? I can reinstall all packages to test.

Not sure, but when I do that I typically update the sticky 2.1 package testing thread in the forum. I may do it this weekend.
I'm going to close this out for now since the two I tested worked fine, and the others should once they're rebuilt. When the time comes if you find an issue, note it here.
