I'm not the dummy that filled up my / Before this, it was barely more than hafl full (well, df -h shows I'm only using 9.6gb of the 16gb there). Also, that hdd is old. I ran fedora core 4 on it.That's how old it is. Then I tried Ubuntu Dapper Duck on it, and some old PCLinuxOS, and eventually, when it was already about 3 years old, installed Lenny on it, my first Debian (and I'm still here!). But I formatted it as ext3 when I installed lenny, and from there just upgraded to squeeze with apt, so haven't changed the fs. Haven't had any reason to change it. So, anyway, after some digging around, I find there are some billions of log files in /var/log/ for popularity-contest. Like, this is 0.005% of the output of sudo find . -xdev -type f | cut -d "/" -f 2 | sort | uniq -c | sort -n 1 popularity-contest.1.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.2.gz.1.2.gz.1.1.1 1 popularity-contest.1.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.2.gz.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1 1 popularity-contest.1.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.2.gz.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1.1 1 popularity-contest.1.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.2.gz.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1.1.1 1 popularity-contest.1.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.2.gz.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1.1.1.1 1 popularity-contest.1.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.2.gz.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1 1 popularity-contest.1.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.2.gz.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1.1.2.gz 1 popularity-contest.1.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.2.gz.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1.1.2.gz.1 1 popularity-contest.1.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.2.gz.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1.2.gz 1 popularity-contest.1.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.2.gz.1.2.gz.1.1.1.2.gz 1 popularity-contest.1.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.2.gz.1.2.gz.1.1.1.2.gz.1 1 popularity-contest.1.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.2.gz.1.2.gz.1.1.1.2.gz.1.1 1 popularity-contest.1.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.2.gz.1.2.gz.1.1.1.2.gz.1.1.1 1 popularity-contest.1.1.2.gz.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.1.2.gz.1.2.gz.1.1.2.gz I've aptitude purged popularity-contest, now. I checked the logrotate file, and it has a maxage of 7, meaning these are all a week old or younger, too. Very, very strange. Now I have to figure out how to get rid of them. Even trying to rm -rf a small subset, like *.1.2.gz.1.2.gz.1* gives me Argument list too long.
