Hi all.
I got my Gentoo system finished a couple weeks ago and since that time it has grown to over 6 gigs.
I found FINDCRUFT from the forum: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=254197&highlight=findcruft.
When I run the script, it outputs a file that is 4.4 megs in size. Most of which points to my Portage directory. After about an hour of clicking and deleting, I checked the size of the Portage directory it is now down 98183 items, totalling 76.7 MB. At this point I came to the realization that this is not what I bought a computer to spend my time doing.
Is there a more reasonable/saner way to maintain my system.
I am wondering is there any places where Portage stashes files that it has downloaded, or temp files (other than the tmp directory) that could be safely flushed.
Thanks in advance. George -- [email protected] mailing list
