Howabout having a list of Non Optified Dev Apps? - I can add them here as we identify them.
Ive only got 10Mb free so need to clean up rather a lot to get 45Mb free for PR1.1 Im sure lots of people are in the same situation so this thread might help..

Non Optified Apps*:

mc (5M)
keepassx (2.5M)
openssh-client (1M)
MyTouchGames (version unknown)
LBreakout2 (version unknown)


* This only a guide to which apps people should uninstall and not in any way an endorsement of other apps on -devel that are safe to install.

-devel is, by its nature, a place where new versions of apps can and do pop up with no warning. Because anything is subject to change, this list could be incorrect unless specific versions are noted.

Please put a clear notice at the top that this only a guide to which apps people should uninstall, not in any way an endorsement of other apps on -devel that are safe to install.

Thank you.

Good point, will do. (If/when the list gets going!)

Can't we just move the /var/cache/apt/ temporarily for the upgrade?
Or is it going to _consume_ 45MB more?

The /var/cache/apt/ is on the mmc by default, only when connected to pc the rootfs is used. But it is possible to use a /usr-folder on another partition which is a solution for the rootfs-optifying-problem...

It might well consume it. Any files it replaces will only get deleted when they're no longer being accessed (on reboot for most of the core apps), so this could well hit 45M.

App manager uses /home/user/MyDocs/.apt-var-cache or something as a cache folder.

Strange, on a desktop you can upgrade and it will unlink the files live as a file doesn't really get deleted until all open() on it are closed even though it's not listing on the FS anymore... Are you sure? :-)
