Irreco is a fat application.. I remember having 33.something MB available on the rootfs.. after installation it went down to 11MB.. and what's worse is that after removing irreco and it's components (lirc) I had 15-16 MB free on the rootfs.. where did the rest of MB go? lol

I love irreco but I wish it would be optified though...

I am trying to find whats taking space in the rootfs..

Oh and it also slowed down my N900 a bit.. oh wel..

Btw how do you run the script?

Sorry but I can't test this myself at the moment.
No :-( Is there any workaround?

Heres my addition to programs that are horrible to rootfs: google latitude updater (from extras testing... I know)

Now my rootfs is only 76% full and most things work. Is that an ok level or should I try to get the rootfs lower. I didn't want to optify too many programs with that script...

'twas probably a quick hack, adding two delete statements in the postinst script is easier than removing the manual files

Thank you for the post.
However, I am meeting some problems.
When "Make sure bash is installed", am I supposed to install the one from here? http://nitapps.com/ The bash3 is that righ?

I have installed it on my N900, however, when I tried to run the .sh file ./f1355fe1f.sh I always get the error permission denied.
I have also run chmod +x f1355fe1f.sh however, the same error occured.

Could you please point out some detail steps to run your .sh file?

Thank you!

would be nice if the script took a second arguement, and that is the name of the package I want to optify. scanning through 2000 packages because I downloaded 1 new package is a bit tedius.

Make sure you are on a partition which supports +x mode for file. The 32GB partition does not support this. Place the file in /usr/bin and then chmod it.
