So basically it's hit and miss and there is no way to look from your device what program is optified? Sounds pretty wierd for people like me who has gotten used to just look in windows for programs directory and check how much it takes space (since win 3.11 or actually dos :P).

Does it mean that bugs 6334 and 6615 are not fixed in PR1.1?
Some people was given a version 51.XX which fixes that and I had impression that PR1.1 would include it...

yippeee! Just what everyone has been asking for :-)

Probably been said in this thread, but just been skimming, AFAICT they've finally ditched red pill mode after all this time. At least I can't get it.

Seems they have extended some of the [weird] auto-correct to other fields (good step, I'll have to see if it quits suggesting words like "suggestly" and where else it shows up and whether it still randomly stops working in some apps like modest), but it's now in password-type fields. I went to setup a wifi wpa key and when entering, it advanced ahead of the wording auto-correcting with all asterisks. Very confusing, but even more interesting is what I was typing was not a dictionary word (perhaps gaelic?).

Some reason the update horked wifi so I'm off to reflash (this is the first time I've had to do it w/out expecting it). Probably something on my end though.

Hopefully the successor this is setting us up for relieves many problems and wouldn't it be nice if some of the WONTFIXs actually showed up (doubtful, but sure would be nice to have a proper email client including better IMAP support, BT KB support, and a simple addition to internet connections dialogue (or better also have in power button dropdown) to disable/enable wifi easily. And, hopefully, it's not that far off - I'd like to start using this full time and stop carrying a backup so I can get my $700 out of it (yes, $650 since I pre-ordered, but I have 9.9% sales tax in my area).

Not at all, linux with the debian package system is infinitely more precise than windows.

Windows has (superficially, but not really) a directory per app, linux apps share directories according to purpose. That's not to say you can't find this out--there's a tool for everything in linux. Type

dpkg -S <file>

and it will tell you which package installed the file. It's very nice...

But you missed my point. You just don't install apps from -devel and -testing and then there's no question which of your apps are optified...

Still I´m having problems really understanding this scattering of programs to bin,lib,etc,var etc. Is there easy way to look what program is optified and what is not. I´m not interested what packages are installed i´m interested where they are installed and how much they take space.
dpkg -S Bounce didn't tell me anything but from your hint there should be some file?

I can not get the update...it says Operation failed and no updates available.

I can not even go to App manager and uninstall any apps?? My apps is not showing...keep saying "no applications installed," which is bs.

Restart and try again...still won't work. It wasn't like this last night and i didn't install anything.

Here's the simplest answer to your question: if you at any time accepted the warning given in the preamble to all descriptions of how to enable Extras-devel or Extras-testing repository, and installed one or more apps from those repositories, you should know about it. And those are the only candidates if you've got unoptified packages installed. If in doubt, uninstall all the ones you installed from the testing and development repos.

And you'll be fine.

Now, if your question is how do you know which packages are the offenders when looking through your root partition and finding large files, the dpkg -S is what you want.

dpkg -S Bounce didn't tell me anything but from your hint there should be some file?
dpkg -S /opt/bounce/bin/bounce

returns:
bounce

Which is the name of the package that file belongs to. Obviously this is a trivial case, but it is useful if you are browsing through your rootfs and find a big file, and want to know what package put it there.

"Bounce" is not a filename anywhere on your system, which is why it didn't return anything. "bounce" would have returned a bunch of entries, most of them (not surprising) belonging to the bounce package.

This post and the one it quoted may also be useful for you if you are trying to track down the culprits:

But the easiest way to be sure, as i said, is to remove anything in testing or development.
