Anyway to remove unused packages in Solus? I have tried a few software items from the Software Centre which had additional downloads but removing the main software didn't seem to remove the additional packages. I have tried eopkg remove orphans but nothing to remove came the response.

    sudo eopkg rmo
    sudo eopkg dc

    get's rid of orphans and cache. sudo eopkg rm xxxxx removes whole packages.

    Thanks for that, has given me an extra 3gib space.

    sudo journalctl --vacuum-time=2d

    try that in a month and you'll see GB's disappear it's quite amazing

    edit: those are the Big Four commands for package&debris removal. Would not be surprised if others had their own 🙂
