Hi,

Any tools capable of sorting .deb packages by user's using frequency?
so as to be able to remove some seldom used packages, to save disk
spaces.


William -- The popularity-contest package will provide some of the info
you seek. The /var/log/popularity-contest file ranks installed packages
by time most recently used on the system.

Popcon will show the most recent use, not frequency of use, on a system.
It can be very useful for pruning unused packages.

Regards,
Ralph
