Hi,

For nr.2, the following has always worked for me:

dpkg-awk "Status: .* installed$" -- Package Installed-Size| awk '{print\
$2}' | egrep -v '^$' | xargs -n2 echo | perl -pe 's/(\S+)\s(\S+)/$2\
$1/' | sort -g

I know it's a bit long, but it shows me the biggest packages, so I know
where to clean up first...
