A perl module for processing huge XML documents in tree mode. commit log from Daniel Macks ([email protected]): XML::Twig: new version2026-10-10: agedu-20260410-1 (Util for tracking down wasted disk space)
Suppose you're running low on disk space. You need to free some up, by finding something that's a waste of space and deleting it (or moving it to an archive medium). How do you find the right stuff to delete, that saves you the maximum space at the cost of minimum inconvenience? Unix provides the standard du utility, which scans your disk and tells you which directories contain the largest amounts of data. That can help you narrow your search to the things most worth deleting. However, that only tells you what's big. What you really want to know is what's too big. By itself, du won't let you distinguish between data that's big because you're doing something that needs it to be big, and data that's big because you unpacked it once and forgot about it. Most Unix file systems, in their default mode, helpfully record when a file was last accessed. Not just when it was written or modified, but when it was even read. So if you generated a large amount of data years ago, forgot to clean it up, and have never used it since, then it ought in principle to be possible to use those last-access time stamps to tell the difference between that and a large amount of data you're still using regularly. agedu is a program which does this. It does basically the same sort of disk scan as du, but it also records the last-access times of everything it scans. Then it builds an index that lets it efficiently generate reports giving a summary of the results for each subdirectory, and then it produces those reports on demand. commit log from Hanspeter Niederstrasser ([email protected]): agedu: v202604102026-10-10: coreutils-9.12-1 (GNU flavoured basic commands)
The GNU Core Utilities are the basic file, shell and text manipulation utilities of the GNU operating system. These are the core utilities which are expected to exist on every operating system. Previously these utilities were offered as three individual sets of GNU utilities, fileutils, shellutils, and textutils. Those three have been combined into a single set of utilities called the coreutils. The commands are named with 'g' prefix like 'gls' or 'gcp'. If you want to use them as 'ls' or 'cp', add %p/lib/coreutils/bin to your PATH or install the coreutils-default package. As the exception, the 'rm' command is named as 'rm.gnu' instead of 'grm' because the cwp-su package has another 'grm'. commit log from Hanspeter Niederstrasser ([email protected]): coreutils: 9.12
