There is very little space left on my file system. I want to delete files in /var/cache
to save disk space. Are there some important files in the /var/cache
which mustn't be deleted? If there are,please list all of them.
My system is Debian.

as I see, the only one folder in /var/cache
that is big is apt
. To safely delete apt's cache, run this command as root
: aptitude clean
. I'm not so sure about the others, they might be important, or might not. If you want to free up your disk space, you also want to use bleachbit
.

apt-get clean
(as root)? – Dubu Jul 15 '15 at 09:54
