I love FSlint. It will find duplicate files, empty directories, tmp files, bad names, name clashes, bad symlinks, and a bunch of other stuff that I can't remember. I use it to clean up the filesystem all the time. I do use deborphan (and gtkorphan) as well to clean up the packages. I also like filelight. A graphical drill down tool that helps find directories that are using up too much space. Yes, I use packages like find and du on the command line when I am in a hurry but sometimes the graphics are really cool to take into a meeting to say "See? This is how much space we are using!" Hope that helps. Have fun! ~Stack~ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
