ok, I'll quit saying "I want" and write it :) here is a slow perl version:
http://nipl.net/hacks/apt-clean.pl and the fast version which you won't be able to build as it uses some libraries and stuff that I'm too lazy to post yet: http://nipl.net/hacks/apt-clean.bb http://nipl.net/hacks/apt-clean.cc http://nipl.net/hacks/apt-clean (i386 elf) The thing removes all the archives for packages I have already installed, but not those I haven't installed. I wrote the fast version in C++ using my pythonesque preprocessor "brace". I haven't published that yet, there's still a bit to do. My C++ is terrible. Or maybe C++ is terrible in general :) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
