How do I clean up my /usr/portage/distfiles directoryFix/AnswerYou could delete all files in the directory, but if you upgrade/downgrade or reinstall an app, all files have to be redownloaded. That is not good, because it wastes bandwidth of the mirror servers and you connection. A better alternative is to use eclean from the gentoolkit package. "eclean is small tool to remove obsolete portage sources files and binary packages. Used on a regular basis, it prevents your DISTDIR and PKGDIR directories to infinitely grow, while not deleting files which may still be useful." The full manpage can be viewed here: http://www.linuxhowtos.org/manpages/1/eclean.htmDescription:The directory /usr/portage/distfiles is gentoo's storage for source files and all downloads. After a few months this directory becomes really huge.
