... and I discover that I have about a gigabyte of kernel(?) sources.
Seems a bit much for kernel sources only, even if it is more versions
and then copies for every single kind of processor. (du of /usr/src)
Anyway, Portage documentation is a bit vague; emerge --clean would clean
the whole package, not just the sources...
I want to know whether I can use Portage to remove the sources; if not,
can I delete them manually without losing functionality (i.e. would
Portage detect there are no downloaded sources should I wish to
recompile a program)?
Are sources stored at some other place as well? This is my Linux partition:
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda4 12233092 11042000 1191092 91% /
(I only have one partition due to a rather small hard drive)
And one other thing: when I select everything in my home folder,
nautilus says it takes up 2.9 GB space.
Properties of my folder itself claim it holds 4.5 GB of space; I don't
know how. It's almost double, and certainly one of the reasons I have
very little space left.
I am quite confused & perplexed.
TIA
