"fink cleanup" will help in that direction: it will remove source tarballs that don't correspond to current package versions, as well as .deb archives that aren't for current packages. It won't remove sources or .deb archives that do correspond to current versions of packages that you don't have installed, however. But if you're really in need of space, anything in /sw/src can be removed, and so can any .deb archives (though that can result in some confusion for fink--it's easily remedied, though). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Fink-beginners mailing list [email protected] http://news.gmane.org/gmane.os.apple.fink.beginners
