Cleaning out old headers problem
I suspect it's just me that doesn't know about this one.
When I get a new build of linux-headers I delete the previous set but one, leaving the current set plus the one before in place.
To do this I use dpkg -l | grep linux-headers-* to check versions and sudo apt-get remove to clean out old versions. I also clean out old boot scripts with gksudo nautilus and update update grub.
I have noticed during this process:
'dpkg: warning: while removing linux-headers-
Checking this directory it contains build modules dating back for some time. Maybe 1.5 gig.
So I guess I am doing it wrong.
Can anyone advise a better procedure that doesn't give this warning and clears out back copy header builds?
