How can I purge these > directories without doing a mistake ? The basic answer is "carefully". But I would suggest that after you have done an install/upgrade recently, you can do something like cd /usr/lib find . -name \*.so\* -mtime +365 > /tmp/OLD more /tmp/OLD cat /tmp/OLD | xargs ls -ltr | more # think, and make sure you aren't deleting libc, and that rescue is ok # and that you could recover your system tar cfvz ~/usr-lib-prune.tgz `cat /tmp/OLD` cat /tmp/OLD | xargs rm because the important thing is to be able to recover without too much pain if you do make a mistake. Then you can look at /lib and you can be more aggresssive. Note that this will break compat of old binaries. But that may be ok.
How to remove old libraries ?
Hello, My server runs NetBSD for a very long time (if I remember, first installation was done with NetBSD 4.0). Motherborad was changed, raid1/5 volumes also... But installation was done a long time ago and upgraded from sources. Now, I have some trouble to build Libreoffice. I have found that this bug comes from old libraries (libstdc++7). Effectively, /lib and /usr/lib contain a lot of old shared libraries. How can I purge these directories without doing a mistake ?
