[SOLVED]System partition cluttering

Hi,

Is there some utility for profiling the system partition usage?

$ yaourt -Sc
$ df -h
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3        48G   40G  5.5G  88% /

This is way too much. Unused packages removed, by the way. Not that they contributed to anything in the first place.

$ yaourt --stats
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These stats can't help to bring into the spotlight the fattest culprits. You have to know the who to start the purge. Any ideas?
