+<title>Description</title>
+
+<para><command>pruneemptydirs</command> is used to clean up a local
+CVS tree. It detects directories containing remnants of old stuff
+which has been removed from the CVS. Such stale directories often
+break compilation. The current directory and all directories beneath
+it will be examined.</para>
+
+<para>Note that this tool does not remove anything; it simply prints
+what to do as a series of remove commands. You can copy and paste
+these commands, or use them with eval in a script.</para>
+
+<para>This tool works better if the source directory is not the same
+as the build directory, since it will not print directories containing
+old executables.</para>
+
+<para>This utility is part of the KDE Software Development Kit.</para>
