Likewise, if you'd also like to delete the distribution files (typically
the source .tgz files, patches, etc. downloaded for the package), you need
to run ``make distclean''.

These files are stored in the distfiles/ directory under the pkgsrc root.
You can find out how much disk space they are taking up by doing something
like ``du -hs /usr/pkgsrc/distfiles'', adjusted accordingly for your
installation of pkgsrc.
