You can run 'apt-get clean' to clean out /var/cache/apt/archives, and I don't think the last directory is important if you're not using the dpkg-multicd select method. You shouldn't delete the other two directories if you want to use dpkg, though. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.mit.edu/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
