Link:  Link
Depends on  KDE 3.4.x
Downloads:  25571
Submitted:  Sep 2 2005
Updated:  Jun 30 2010

Description:

KleanSweep allows you to reclaim disk space by finding unneeded files. It can search for files basing on several criterias; you can seek for:
* empty files
* empty directories
* backup files
* broken symbolic links
* broken executables
* dead menu entries (.desktop files pointing to non-existing executables)
* obsolete thumbnails (thumbnails of non-existing images)
* duplicated files
* orphaned files (files not found in RPM or DEB database).

Results for each criteria are shown in separate tab; files may appear on many tabs if they match many criterias - in this case they are "linked", so you have to mark (or unmark) file for deletion only once! Before actual deletion takes place, you're given an option to create backup archive.

Planned features:
* seeking for orphaned files in Slackware and Gentoo (portage) database
* and more!

KleanSweep consists of KDE-based (C++) graphical frontend and small helper Perl script that performs actual searching. All searches, except for orphaned files, duplicates and dead menu entries are as fast as usual 'find' would be.

This is initial release and may contain bugs. I take no responsibility for any damage caused by this program.

Note: it may compile/work in KDE < 3.4.x, but was only tested in 3.4.2.




Changelog:

* Removed "greedy match" button
* added Italian, German, Spanish and Portugaese translations

Whether you use a YAST Source Mirror, Red Carpet, APT or just manually download your packages you can find a packaged KleanSweep RPM here http://linux01.gwdg.de/~pbleser/ Pascal provides instructions on the site for installing from YAST Source Mirrors, APT and Red Carpet.

You beat me to an implementation. I had an idea for to do this as a starting of prog.

I would suggest that you look for yum caches (maybe apt caches) and old files in /tmp. Would be great if you allowed the user to define folders that they typically store temporary information in.

I haven't actually tried the program, so what language did you implement it in?

There is no 'uninstall' recipe in scons. Instead you should type:
# scons -c install

with the klik and the deb package I obtain always the same error:
"Can't execute helper process. Make sure you have kleansweep-helper in your PATH."

It' s strange, the first time that I have launch it has worked perfectly :-(

As far as I'm aware, klik installas packages in their own subdirectories, so this may be a problem. Kleansweep executes 'kleansweep-helper' so it must be anywhere in your PATH (e.g. in/usr/bin/). So you can copy/symlink kleansweep-helper to /usr/bin or set PATH properly so the application subdirectory created by klik is included in the PATH.

firtst time I have exec kleansweep it has worked fine and it was a klik package, this problem is only risen after little time and with a deb package.
now I have tried with both packages (deb/klik) but it does not work.

I have linked "kleansweep-helper" in several path, /usr/bin too, kleansweep continue to give the same error.

Things changed a little bit with kleansweep-helper compared with early kleansweep release. Now kleansweep just executes kleansweep-helper so it must be in the PATH (in earlier releases the helper script was kept in kleansweep data directory). Please check if you can execute 'kleansweep-helper' manually in the console and that it's not giving you an error. Is perl correctly listed if you execute '/usr/bin/env perl'?

I have installed Kleansweep from source, after a deep cleaning operation (updatedb,locate kleanswe*, rm rm rm), now it work fine.
Thanks Yogin, a great support for a great app :)

The error is inside the Debian Package...

for a stupid mistake, the -helper was installed in /usr/share instead of /usr/lib!

Now it works correctly!

Cheers,

I also get "Can't execute helper process. Make sure you have kleansweep-helper in your PATH." when I directly install it from the Debian reposository. Mark

I'd like to test the new "orphaned files searching", but I'm quite unsure.
How can I undo after cleaning up my system, if I made a mistake? I always do a backup, but what to do with the created file?

Thanks for your great app.

The backup file is a plain tar archive, so you have to untar it (tar -xf archive.tar or using e.g. mc). If your system however is no longer usable (e.g. doesn't boot correctly), you need to boot any live-cd (knoppix is a good choice), then mount your partitions and restore your files. Just a reminder though before you proceed - please keep in mind that kleansweep finds files that can *potentially* be unneeded (e.g. in Debian/Ubuntu many config files in /etc may be listed as orphaned because they were created on the fly by packages and are not recorded in dpkg database). So be careful!

so because I'm using kubuntu I will exclude /etc at the moment. I already realized that there are many files I think I'll need in the future. Thanks

I tried orphaned files scanning several times now, bt I got no run without killing my system. i think I´ll give it up and wait for the next release. Nevertheless good work. Thank You

Orphaned files searching is based on dpkg (in Debian or Ubuntu) or rpm (in rpm-based distros) database which holds the list of installed files. Some important system files however are not recorded in this database, so orphaned files searching will not get any better in next release of kleansweep, as it is limited by this factor. It will be always based on user's knowledge and decision. Unfortunately.

 Follow symlinks

Great app, but is there any way it can follow symlinks?

I try to find duplicate files in my musiccollection and the collection is on more than one partition, but Kleansweep doesn't follow symlinks, so it is useless for me I'm afraid :-(

Cheers,

J

KleanSweep doesn't follow symlinks as it is a bit tricky... I see File::Find perl module (which I use for filesystem traversal) optionally supports it, so I may consider this in the future... But.. why don't you just temporarly mount this partition with another mount point?

Do you like or dislike Ubuntu Unity?
 Yes, unity is alien technology!
 It is less confusing than Gnome 3 default, shell.
 Granny thinks it is much more usable than Gnome 2
 Canonical is embarrasing itself with this split project
 Gnome 3 default shell is much better
 I dislike Unity, Gnome 3 default shell is alien technology!
 None of the above, I like the 2Gb for free and Apple alike behavior. Will post a comment instead
