I don't actually remove the directory /var/cache/apt/archives. I just move its contents. As far as I can tell, that is identical to doing an "apt-get clean". "/mnt/apt/dists/latest/binary-i386" is just an extra directory I use as my local apt-mirror. I mount it so it doesn't get blown away when I erase the disk. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
