Thanks Ryan,

That's a nice tool. I uninstalled a lot of stuff that I never used.

Thank you guys for the quick response. Doing 'sudo port -f -u uninstall' suggested by Erwan I went down from 12.2Gb to 9.1Gb. The distfiles are about 353Mb. I've been thinking however, that probably the best way to do this is to remove macports and start from scratch. I'm thinking about this because I installed many ports in the past that I basically don't need anymore, and other times I uninstalled others but dependencies remained and so on. The only thing that bothers me is that it will take again about 2 hours to compile the GCC compiler.

There's no need to go to all that trouble. Try port_cutleaves, which helps you identify and remove unneeded ports.

sudo port install port_cutleaves

man port_cutleaves

port_cutleaves
