Self <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : Wondering WHICH PACKAGE IS USING UP ALL YOUR DISK SPACE? You can verify a package's installed size with the dpkg -s command: dpkg -s <package> And the following script will grab all your installed packages and show their installed size, sorted and ranked by size: #!/bin/sh PATH=/bin:/usr/bin time dpkg --get-selections | grep ' install' | awk '{print $1}' | xargs -n 1 dpkg -s | egrep '^(Package|Installed-Size):' | awk '{printf( "%s: ", $2 ); getline; printf( "%s\n", $2 )}' | sort -k2nr | cat -n=20 Also see http://newbieDoc.sourceForge.net/ ... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
