Dead-simple script to clean up Ubuntu-based distros.
- Download the script (uFit.sh).
- Right click → Permissions → Properties → Allow executing file as program.
- Click it and choose "Run in Terminal".
- Enter your user password.
- Enjoy!
- Updates all DEB, SNAP and FLATPAK applications.
- Fixes any missing dependencies or broken packages.
- Shrinks systemd's journal to a maximum of 100 MB.
- Uses preload to speed up application load time.
- Removes dependencies that are no longer required.
- Removes orphaned packages and orphaned libraries.
- Removes old kernels that are no longer required.
- Removes all packages kept in the apt cache.
- Removes all data kept in the thumbnail cache.
- Removes all unused flatpak runtimes.
- Removes old versions on installed snaps.
- Removes trashed files older than 30 days.
- Removes extra localization of installled packages.
If snapd isn't installed, the script will end unexpectedly. However, commands about Snap are at the very end, so all of the rest commands will have been executed successfully. Not sure (yet) how to fix that. Feel free to help if you know how. Alternatively, edit the script with your favorite text editor, remove sudo snap refresh and sudo snap set system refresh.retain=2, save and run it!
