# BRIEF: Quick and dirty script to clear disk space (log files, apt cache, etc).
#     This is most useful if creating a machine template or preparing for backups.
# USAGE: Put this file in /usr/local/bin/cleanup.sh or wherever you prefer is ok.
#     Make sure to chmod +x and make it executable. Run from command line at will,
#     or call from a pre-backup script.
# SETTINGS:
# -------------------- NOTHING TO CHANGE BELOW THIS LINE --------------------
# Delete old config files
apt-get purge $(dpkg -l|grep "^rc"|awk '{print $2}')
# Clean cache
apt-get autoremove -y && apt-get clean
# Clean apt lists - this will force re-download on next apt-get update and may not be desired
rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists
# Delete some documentation
