In light of other replies, I thought I'd drill down a bit here: my usage is probably non-conventional. 870248 ./usr/share 878272 ./var/cache/pbuilder 1143340 ./var/cache/apt/archives 1181616 ./var/cache/apt 2069572 ./var/cache 2455612 ./var 4587268 ./usr/local/share 4798860 ./usr/local 7332060 ./usr 10730548 . /usr/local has xscreensaver, qemu and mono in it, which are quite big. /usr has /usr/src which has several linux kernels, and as you can see, I have sid chroots there for pbuilder. But I think /var/cache/apt/archives should put that in context. -- Jon Dowland http://alcopop.org/
