If you just need to purge all packages that just have their config installed, the easiest way I know of is to use the aptitude. # aptitude purge ~c This will purge all packages that have been removed but have left config files around. If you want to see what those packages are, run # aptitude search ~c -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
