For those who have installed python apps from testing or devel. The python in extras is now optified, which gives you a nice 20 megs extra in rootfs.

I had to manually remove some stuff to get it updated.

Here's what I did:

This will most likely remove some programs. You will see a list of what will be removed and asked to verify. Please note that you might not have the same programs installed as I did. FM Radio, Quicknote and Witter are a couple of python apps that will be removed.


in xterm as root:

apt-get remove python
apt-get remove python2.5
apt-get remove python-osso
apt-get autoremove
apt-get clean

now you should have much more space.

Install whatever programs that were removed. The new optified python libraries should be installed in the process.

Check with df -h that you see the opt mounts for python added to the list.
