You can (and should) erase all the files for which you download a newer replacement. Do that *before* unzipping the new distributions, since otherwise you will be removing some of the new files. Assuming you accept the recommendations above, here's a tentative list of cleanups: bnu281b.ver bnu281s.ver djdev202.ver djlsr202.ver djtst202.ver faq211b.ver faq211s.ver gcc295b.ver gcc295s.ver gpp295b.ver lgp2811b.ver lgp2811s.ver mak377b.ver mak377s.ver objc295b.ver PDC22.VER txi312b.ver txi312s.ver To remove the package whose *.ver file is called FOO.ver, type this from the top-level DJGPP installation directory: rm -f @manifest/FOO.mft Note that .mft extension; `rm' is from Fileutils which you seem to have installed.
