    Where is the .deb cache

    I have a small harddrive, and periodically I like to free up space. I was wondering if anyone could tell me where all the .debs that apt-get fetches are stored, so I can clean them out?

    The cache for apt is in /var/cache/apt/archives

    to clean the cache use either:

    Code:
    sudo apt-get autoclean
    (which removes redundant cached packages)

    or

    Code:
    sudo apt-get clean
    (which removes all cached packages)
