Low on disk space? You might need to check\u00a0your macports space usage. \u00a0I’m always tight on space since I primarily use SSDs in my machines. Here are some tips I use to help clean macports.<\/p>\n

The following are some shell commands you can\u00a0use to help reclaim disk space from macports. I’ve gathered these from around the web, and tested that each one is safe to use (on my machines at least!). Using all of them combined can save gigabytes of space!<\/p>\n

Run these commands in a terminal to help clean up your macports installation:<\/p>\n

#Remove misc leftover data:\nsudo port clean --all installed\nsudo port -f uninstall inactive\n\n#Remove leftover build files:\nsudo rm -rf \/opt\/local\/var\/macports\/build\/*\n\n#Remove download files:\nsudo rm -rf \/opt\/local\/var\/macports\/distfiles\/*\n\n#Remove archives:\nsudo rm -rf \/opt\/local\/var\/macports\/packages\/*\n\n#Remove dependencies of uninstalled ports:\nsudo port -f uninstall leaves<\/pre>\n
Alternatively, download a handy bash script of the above HERE<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n
