+<c>eclean</c> is a tool to remove old source files and old binary packages from |
97 |
+your system. |
98 |
+</p> |
99 |
+ |
100 |
+<p> |
101 |
+When you build and install packages, the source files are downloaded and |
102 |
+preserved in DISTDIR, usually <path>/usr/portage/distfiles</path>. This can |
103 |
+accumulate several gigs of material over time if you don't clean it |
104 |
+periodically. You can run <c>eclean-dist</c> to clean only source files from |
105 |
+DISTDIR. |
106 |
+</p> |
107 |
|
108 |
+<p> |
109 |
+You can create archives of installed packages by using <c>quickpg</c> or |
110 |
+FEATURES="buildpkg". These archived packages are kept in PKGDIR, usually |
111 |
+<path>/usr/portage/packages</path>. When you no longer need to keep them around, |
112 |
+or if they're too old, you can run <c>eclean-pkg</c> to remove them from PKGDIR. |
113 |
+It's a good way to ensure that any binary packages you have are only the latest |
114 |
+versions. |

119 |
+system, please read <c>man eclean</c>. |
