There is a ppa for it but why. Linux doesn't need cleaners like Windows does. Other than the kernels the other stuff takes up so little space it almost isn't even worth the space on the drive for the app itself. And those can be removed with a simple
Code:
sudo apt --purge autoremove
Apt cache You can write a script to run occasionally for it. Run with sudo.
Code:
#!/bin/bash
# clears apt cache
apt clean
# cleans old configs and kernels as well as unneeded dependencies.
# i purge all apps individually with this command like so. total cleanout.
# apt --purge autoremove $APP
# without the specific $APP it just removes everything that isn't needed.
apt --purge autoremove
# removes user thumbnails
for user in /home/* ; do
rm -r "$user"/.cache/thumbnails
done
Don't need a whole app to do it. Does same thing without a whole package + dependencies minus the gui.
I wouldn't mess with the /home/"$USER" stuff though. Most people's computer habits are fairly consistent. Stuff will just get recreated again. No real point.
