I did "rm -rf /var/cache/system-upgrade/updates/packages/".
Why? I said the *entire* /var/cache/system-upgrade/ directory can be deleted.
I said it is no longer used.
rm -rf /var/cache/system-upgrade/
There should be no question.
General question:
I see no hint in the "rm" man page of an option for removing all files older
than [d] days, or [w] weeks, or [m] months, or older than [date]. What's the best way
to do such things from the command line?
General answer
Google is your friend.
Just Google "delete files by age linux"
