I like to run a lean root filesystem - I have separate partitions for /home, /tmp, /usr and /var. I've noticed that I'm getting quite tight on space on my root fs, and looking around for why, I've noticed that /etc/gconf is taking up 24MB.
Most of this appears to be schemas, which are not configuration data, but just describe the structure of config data. Why is this in /etc? Shouldn't it belong in /usr/share? Alternatively is there a way to pare down the schemas? Most of the space seems to be taken up with descriptions in multiple languages. Is there a way to strip out all but english? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
