dpigs - Show which installed packages occupy the most space
dpigs [options]
dpigs sorts the installed packages by size and outputs the largest ones. Per default dpigs displays the largest 10 packages. You can change this value by using the -n option (see "OPTIONS"). The information is taken from the dpkg status file with grep-status(1).
- -n, --lines=N
-
Display the N largest packages on the system (default 10).
- -s, --status=FILE
-
Use FILE instead of the default dpkg status file (which is /var/lib/dpkg/status currently).
- -S, --source
-
Display the largest source packages of binary packages installed on the system.
- -H, --human-readable
-
Display package sizes in human-readable format (like ls -lh or du -h)
- -h, --help
-
Display some usage information and exit.
