trash-cli AntiX 19 Icewm

[Forum Admin rokytnji]

After dist-upgrading this chromebook from AntiX 17 to AntiX 19.
Plus. Since the drive is only 16 gig for / and /home both.

I’ve been wondering . I am left with a lot of cruft named old.

Which is a good thing in it’s own way as these are your backups when you upgrade.

I already installed trash-cli with apt-get. My plan was to use

trash /path/to/file

For each line I showed in locate command. Trash cli won’t delete nothing yet and things can be restored from trash with

1st to see what is there

trash-list

To delete all listed at once

trash-empty

If I wanna keep and restore what I put in trash

restore-trash

The restore-trash command will list all of the files in the trash with a number next to each one. To restore a file simply enter the number next to the file.

Since before upgrade I was cruzing at about 7 gig for my full install. Now upped to

tmpfs           389M  4.0K  389M   1% /run/user/1000

I might get lucky and slim and trim down thing to back to normal. Like a fresh install .

Any holes in my idea?

I say pull the trigger, I don’t see anything on the list worth falling in love with.
I also use bleachbit and if your access to network is safely always on you can delete /usr/share/man too 🙂
Once you run bleachbit as user and as root on the gui then running $bleachbit -c –preset only cleans what you had last set it to. It is really fast and the output is on console/term.

Update on using this. It is not accomplishing the space saving I want. 3 or 4 gigs shaved off would be OK.

A lot of steps need to be taken by me because of permission denied errors using root terminal with this command.
Seems I have to cd closer to the file 1st.
Most old files are in google chrome default folder and will not grab the space I need either.

I just did a fresh install on my IBM 430 laptop on a fresh 500 gig drive.
Full Install with dist-upgrade done and autoclean done weighs in at 3.5 gig.

That is a lot smaller than my 8 gig upgrade from 17 to 19. On yjis Chromebook.

So. Re-installing is looking better on this Chromebook as I don’t use it much except as a large screen phone type of hardware that is a tied in with phone when camping.
Nothing really precious on the Chromebook.

Took only a couple minutes vs dist-upgrade route I took earlier. Also. What I backed up fit on pen drive and won’t amount to a gig of data.

Looks like trash-cli is going to the way side for me. It was just a idea.
