Re: apt-get autoclean



ok, I'll quit saying "I want" and write it :)

here is a slow perl version:

  http://nipl.net/hacks/apt-clean.pl

and the fast version which you won't be able to build as it uses some
libraries and stuff that I'm too lazy to post yet:

  http://nipl.net/hacks/apt-clean.bb
  http://nipl.net/hacks/apt-clean.cc
  http://nipl.net/hacks/apt-clean     (i386 elf)

The thing removes all the archives for packages I have already
installed, but not those I haven't installed.

I wrote the fast version in C++ using my pythonesque preprocessor
"brace".  I haven't published that yet, there's still a bit to do.
My C++ is terrible.  Or maybe C++ is terrible in general :)
