For my system I have some specifications: 1.- Debian tools (dselect, apt ...) must be available inside the system, so I don't need a special way to update the system, just Debian 2.- It must be able to install a wide range of apps 3.- It must be small
If I want to use current Sid I have a problem: packages data files. /var/lib/dpkg/available : 16Mb /var/lib/dpkg/available-old : 16Mb /var/cache/apt/*.bin : 13 Mb /var/lib/apt/list/* : 17 Mb /var/lib/status : 1.7Mb /var/lib/status-old : 1.7Mb This is a loooooot of space. More than the space I'm using for real aplications! I can just delete all that files (except status files) and save the space or maybe there's a better approach. I've also thought of doing my own private and small Debian repository mirror. Too much traffic for my small server. -- Jordi Polo http://www.robotOS.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
