Well, the second Ubuntu Long Term Support release, 8.04 Hardy, has reached end-of-life. (Along with 11.10 Oneiric and the Desktop Support for the 10.04 LTS Lucid.) Flushing my package mirror of Hardy and Oneiric was pretty dramatic, freeing up about 142GB worth of space.
Before:
$ df -h /var/cache/mirrors/ Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/sysvg-debmirrorlv 753G 692G 62G 92% /var/cache/mirror
After:
$ df -h /var/cache/mirrors/ Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/sysvg-debmirrorlv 753G 550G 204G 73% /var/cache/mirror
If only online filesize resize shrinking worked. :)
