I had the impression that the package manager, portage, removes anything except config files in /etc.
My installation is quite old. Are there any other folders which may contain lint? Lint refers to any unwanted remains from pacakges which are not installed, except small config files in /etc.

Not necessary when we have cli tools which refuse to remove folders with contents. So it is safe to utilize those and have a smaller root partition. |

Portage will not remove files that:
- are shared with other packages
- edited by the user
- not in the initial install tracking list (i.e. created by the package or by the user)
And of course it will not remove
- directories that have any files in them that are not portage created.
So yes, it will leave crud around if you don't look for it. _________________ Intel Core i7 2700K/Radeon R7 250/24GB DDR3/256GB SSD
