Lite Tweaks - Suggestions welcomed

[rijnsma]

When I was in windows (last week) I used a free program called CCleaner it seemed to do the job quite well and had/has a number of functions from cleaning to registry checking to uninstalling unwanted progs and their components. I don't know how much of that sort of thing would apply to LL. but something similar might be good.

Is it still around... ??? Good program and together with other tools great in cleaning the Windows 'register'. Lot of work, but it cán pay off...

The only thing I can't fix is that message when I click on Quit: 'Nothing was selected.'.
I guess I can always change the message to 'Nothing was selected or you pressed Quit.'

If I understand this scenario, which may not be the case...?
It when there is nothing showing to select?
So how about
"No Old Kernels Available To Remove"

No,when Quit is clicked it will open a message. It should just quit.

Argh O.K... Understould, "Quit" is just not quitting O.K

Lite Cleaner is now available for download:

Code:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install lite-cleaner

Current version: litecleaner_1.0-0030

Installs to: Menu, System, Lite Cleaner or you can run lite-cleaner from the command line.

Once the kernel portion is perfected we will include that is a future for release but for now, there should be enough tools there to clean some peoples systems significantly. A HUGE thank you to those who contributed code and ideas, this couldn't be possible without your input, so I thank you all, and so do the people who use our software

It's not working well when you have multiple users.
When I start it from terminal:

Code:

du: cannot read directory ‘/home/misko2/.thumbnails/’: Permission denied

That's because it will try to display cache size from all the users:

Code:

THUMBCACHESIZE=$(du -sh /home/*/.thumbnails/ | awk '{print $1}')

Thanks misko_2083, I will fix this

Ok, I have limited this to per-user function. I think it's a more sensible approach as people will probably not want others messing with their home folder on multiple user systems.

Cool, tested and it's all ok now.
That approach is much better.

One more thing.
Maybe you could make a contest on the forum for the design of that lite-cleaner icon.
This one looks a like a toaster that's stuck in the golf hole.
