cleanlinks - remove dangling symbolic links and empty directories
cleanlinks
The cleanlinks program searches the directory tree descended
from the current directory for symbolic links whose targets do not exist,
and removes them. It then removes all empty directories in that directory
tree.
cleanlinks is useful for cleaning up a shadow link tree created with
lndir(1)
after files have been removed from the real directory.
A
message will be printed upon encountering each dangling symlink and empty
directory.

David Dawes wrote the cleanlinks program
for XFree86.
Colin Watson wrote this manual page, originally for the Debian
Project.
