So, earlier today I was catching up on various things online, and Epiphany's download window just halted at 24% completion. "Nothing to worry about," I thought. "Just a laggy server."

Well, I decided to do something that I had not done in nearly a full week: Be productive. (That's right. On my computer. Productivity. Really? YES!)

Anyway, I've been finding scanmem to prove quite useful for debugging some issues I've been having with school projects [and cheating a bit at Net Hack]. After a bit of searching, I discovered that scanmem was already packaged for Fedora (thanks, Jakub Hrozek!), so that means less work for me! However, I'm of the opinion that making things easy to find for end-users is a great benefit, and comps makes this outstandingly simple combined with GUI packager frontends such as Pirut/Pup and (hopefully in F9+) PackageKit.

Yet, when I tried to update it earlier I received the following message from CVS:

cvs update: Updating comps
P comps/comps-f8.xml.in
cvs [update aborted]: cannot write .new.comps-f8.: No space left on device

(Oops. So now I knew why Ephy never finished the downloads, either…)

I just spent the past hour or so cleaning up my home directory: removing nearly 7 gigs (WTF) of stagnant build files ($HOME/rpmbuild/BUILD), a few more gigs of stuff in $HOME/Downloads, old Fedora ISOs that I still had, archived a bunch of music I no longer frequently listen to, and re-organized most of my photos. My folders are now all organized and stuff! And as a plus, I've reclaimed nearly 16 gigs. Excellent!
