Description p5B2EA84B3 2025-04-20 10:18:53 UTC 
When removing py3* packages with pkg delete the *dist-info directories in /usr/local/lib/python*/site-packages remain as leftovers.

This is a problem for Pip and other modules as these *dist-info directories are used for checking if a Python module is installed.

It will not be deleted at the time of pkg-delete.
However, it seems that it removed when it is empty at the time when Templates/BSD.local.dist of mtree is used.
