package: dpkg version: 1.10.11 There is no way to easily get a listing of installed packages with sizes so that one can clean up a Debian system which is running out of room.
This makes it hard to maintain a system when it gets near 100% disk capacity on the / or /usr filesystem since you need to look through all the installed packages to find ones to get rid of, but you don't know how much space each package takes up. Most package management tools won't sort by size, and it would be easiest if you could just do dpkg --get-selections-and-sizes and sort it using "sort" or something like that. -- Daniel Lakeland [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.street-artists.org/~dlakelan
