How to clean up /

Hi,

I just checked my partitions and my / is almost full. Installation is about 2.9GB huge  :shock:

So i'm assuming that there is alot of unused files from updates and so on.

How do I clean them up? I really want to free up some space

Sincerely, Jorgen

Re: How to clean up /

try pacman -Sc first -that'll cleanup old packages. If you don't have your PKGDEST variable in /etc/makepkg.conf set to something you can probably prune out .pkg.tar.gz's in /var/abs
