delete mans could be a chaos while uninstall packages, I use this script
for blank all the NOT ENGLISH man pages...
lazaro@utopian:~# cat /usr/local/bin/manclean.sh
#!/bin/sh
cd /usr/share/man || exit 0
for i in $(ls -l |grep -v "man[0-9]"|awk {'print $9'}); do
for b in $i/*/*.[0-9].gz; do
test -f $b && echo '' > $b
done
done
# EOF
for blank ALL the man's pages, just strip the "grep -v" between "|"
You could also do the same with /usr/share/doc/'s content :D
lazaro@utopian:~# cat /usr/local/bin/desdoc.sh
#!/bin/sh
cd /usr/share/doc/ || exit 0
for doc in $(find /usr/share/doc -type f); do
test -f $doc && echo '' > $doc
done
# EOF
Exim could also be very big, you could use msmtp-mta for replace local
mta and still get mails from cron ;)
Other big source of uneeded bytes are the logs, usin the same medicine
lazaro@utopian:~# cat /usr/local/bin/limpialogs.sh
#!/bin/sh
cd /var/log/ || exit 0
for logn in $(find /var/log/ -type f|grep ".*[0-9]"); do
test -f $logn && rm $logn
done
for log in $(find /var/log/ -type f); do
test -f $log && echo '' > $log
done
# EOF
OH! last but not less important
aptitude clean
Que tenga un buen día y mucho sexo en la noche. Saludos
