I don't really know what you can do about that. It depends on what you want. I have: $ du -sh /usr/* --exclude=/usr/src 300M /usr/bin 171M /usr/include 1.4G /usr/lib 324K /usr/libexec 88K /usr/local 13M /usr/sbin 934M /usr/share Of course you don't really need include once things are built and you can delete the /usr/lib/*.?a files. I don't have all my libraries stripped, so I could save some space there. There are a lot of files in /usr/share that could be removed. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
