Hi gurus, Thanks to the following for their good suggestions: Steve Sandau David Foster Mathias Kanstrup and system administration account (nice name eh? ;-)) Solution: Use pkginfo and pkgrm to determine which packages to remove. Everyone agreed that removing the actual directories without removing the packages was a bad idea and could cause dependecy issues with other packages/software. system admin suggested to reapply patches after you remove packages since they get removed as well. mathias used this in the past - pkgrm -A `pkginfo | grep -i japanese | cut -c13-25` to remove packages faster. Original Problem: quick question: Is it safe to remove /usr/dt and /usr/openwin if I am not using xwindows? What other dirs or packages are safe to remove (if you can think of any of the top of your head). I am running low on space and these two dirs take up more than 100mb. Thanks a bunch!
