I feel my system is perpetually bloated, and try to maintain what applications I have installed but always seem to veer off into new applications or python modules and what ever else.

Just wondering how does one keep a lean daily use system?

      I find pacdef significantly faster than aconfmgr for tracking and pruning packages. Additionally, if you wish to use both tools, the aconfmgr wiki includes a helper function that enables you to ignore all packages. This setup allows pacdef to manage the packages, while aconfmgr handles the configuration.
