| What packages are taking all my disk? |
I'm using Ubuntu here, but this would work on any Debian based distribution... I want to find out what packages are sucking up all the disk on my new laptop. So, I run:
mikal@mikal-eee:~$ dpkg-query -W --showformat='${Installed-Size} ${Package}\n' | sort -n
Which will give you a list of packages sorted by size when installed. In my case, removing evolution and open office ill make a big difference to my free disk space.
