Hi all,

I have searched for solution first, and could not find it...

My /var/pkg is huge:

:; pfexec du -shc /var/pkg/*
13G     /var/pkg/cache
512     /var/pkg/gui_cache
5,0K    /var/pkg/history
61M     /var/pkg/license
512     /var/pkg/linked
512     /var/pkg/lock
512     /var/pkg/modified
5,5K    /var/pkg/pkg5.image
14G     /var/pkg/publisher
512     /var/pkg/ssl
346M    /var/pkg/state
28G     total

I wonder if /var/pkg/cache can be "emptied"?

With best regards.

make sure flush-content-cache-on-successis True in pkg property output, then 
install one package (and uninstall it if not really needed;), then the cache 
should get flushed for you.

Hi Toomas,

I have that property set since long time ago:

:; pkg property flush-content-cache-on-success
PROPERTY                       VALUE
flush-content-cache-on-success True

ATM:
:; du -sh /var/pkg/cache/
13G     /var/pkg/cache/

:; pkg list mail/opendkim

pkg list: no packages matching the following patterns are installed:
   mail/opendkim

# Installed 2 packages, but removed only one -- but that is another story...

:; du -sh /var/pkg/cache/
13G     /var/pkg/cache/

So, nothing has happen

Regards.
