Right, and at least the last part can be automated. Since this is all web stuff, there could be a link on the main control page called like "Update indexes and show distro removal overview". Actually, using a special link for this is something that should exist anyway. Because ATM the expiration thing would abort if the distro has already disappeared from the mirrors and cannot be downloaded. Having a special entry mode for cleanup purposes could bypass this, i.e. continue to the cleanup overview even if an update error happened. I cannot reproduce the part about "Slow Firefox". My PC here is ~7 years old and the cache directory is littered with lots of stuff and still I can use it without any issue in regular FF. https://alioth.debian.org/plugins/scmgit/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=apt- cacher-ng/apt-cacher- ng.git;a=commitdiff;h=245b9a27c569e7e229446fe808d9a1936bec7551 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1635029 Title: apt-cacher-ng in yakkety lacks distkill.pl To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt-cacher-ng/+bug/1635029/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1635029] Re: apt-cacher-ng in yakkety lacks distkill.pl
Thanks Eduard! Based on your hint, I was able to figure out what needs to be done: 1. Open http://:3142/acng-report.html in the browser 2. Click "Start Scan and/or Expiration" button 3. Wait for the scan to finish 4. After the scan has finished, navigate to "Allocated disk space (Top 10, show more / cleanup)" at the bottom of the page and click the link "show more / cleanup" 5. Select the check boxes left to all listed release files, we want to get rid of (seems to put a lot of load on my Firefox as checking the boxes and scrolling made the browser freeze a lot) 6. At the bottom of the page, click the button "Delete selected files" 7. On the next page, click the button "Delete files" So it is not the apt-cacher-ng package that has a bug, but the documentation on the German Ubuntu wiki that is outdated. Unfortunately, the procedure above is not really straight forward. Even in case that you have already navigated to the apt-cacher-ng browser page. It is not really intuitive that you have to click the tiny link "show more / cleanup" in order to start making all the old distro killing happen. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1635029 Title: apt-cacher-ng in yakkety lacks distkill.pl To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt-cacher-ng/+bug/1635029/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I remember vaguely that it has been dropped in favor of the new deletion assistant on the expiration page (scroll down the log page after running expiration task). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1635029 Title: apt-cacher-ng in yakkety lacks distkill.pl To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt-cacher-ng/+bug/1635029/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Harald, this seems to be a bug in how upstream generates the package. Also, since this package is in Universe, it would be best if you could report it to Debian directly. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1635029 Title: apt-cacher-ng in yakkety lacks distkill.pl To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt-cacher-ng/+bug/1635029/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
