Find it here: > http://blog.christian-stankowic.de/?p=5684&lang=en Thanks Dimitri, but I used that script some time a go and updated to the 0.2 Version from the author.

Over night my spacewalk server re-synced all old stuff back and all the freed space was used again. Don't know why, but that happened to me. Regards .
