Hi team -
I’m running kernel 6.1.66-2 with Plasma 5.2.21
Over the past few years have been watching my system partition usage grow slowly. Wasn’t sure what was happening. Looking into it more, it seems that I’ve been hanging on to unused dependencies, without realizing it. It’s almost 4G (shown below).
Before I pull the trigger and get rid of this, is there anything I should know. It’s no fun to try to recover if I really break things.
thx
Reid
