Setting version to cauldron, because package requests will usually be done for cauldron first and then be available in the next stable release after that

BleachBit quickly frees disk space and tirelessly guards your privacy. Free cache, delete cookies, clear Internet history, shred temporary files, delete logs, and discard junk you didn't know was there. Designed for Linux and Windows systems, it wipes clean 90 applications including Firefox, Internet Explorer, Adobe Flash, Google Chrome, Opera, Safari,and more. Beyond simply deleting files, BleachBit includes advanced features such as shredding files to prevent recovery, wiping free disk space to hide traces of files deleted by other applications, and vacuuming Firefox to make it faster. Better than free, BleachBit is open source.

Free of charge
Free to share, learn, and modify (open source)
Free of adware, spyware, and malware

Uses

Use BleachBit to:
Free disk space
Reduce the size of backups and the time to create them by removing unnecessary files
Maintain privacy
Improve system performance (by vacuuming the Firefox database, for example)
Prepare whole disk images for compression (common for "ghost" backups and virtual machines) by wiping free disk space
Cleaners

BleachBit includes a growing list of cleaners. Typically each cleaner represents an application such as Firefox or Internet Explorer. Within each cleaner, BleachBit gives options covering components that can be cleaned such as cache, cookies, and log files. Each option is given a description to help you make good decisions.


Going beyond standard deletion of files, BleachBit has several advanced cleaners:
Clear the memory and swap on Linux
Delete broken shortcuts on Linux
Delete the Firefox version 3 URL history without deleting the whole fileâwith optional shredding
Delete Linux localizations: delete languages you don't use. More powerful than localepurge and available on more Linux distributions.
Clean APT for Debian, Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Linux Mint
Find widely-scatted junk such as Thumbs.db and .DS_Store files.
Execute yum clean for CentOS, Fedora, and Red Hat to remove cached package data
Delete Windows registry keysâoften where MRU (most recently used) lists are stored
Delete the OpenOffice.org recent documents list without deleting the whole Common.xcu file
Overwrite free disk space to hide previously files
Vacuum Firefox, Google Chrome, Liferea, Thunderbird, and Yum databases: shrink files without removing data to save space and improve speed
Surgically remove private information from .ini and JSON configuration files without deleting the whole file.

Comment 7 Marja Van Waes 2012-08-29 18:09:38 CEST
and in Mageia 2, too

[18:07] <marja> :v bleachbit
[18:07] <Sophie> 0.9.3-1.mga3 // core-release (Mga, cauldron, x86_64), core-release (Mga, cauldron, i586)
[18:07] <Sophie> 0.9.2-2.mga2 // core-release (Mga, 2, x86_64), core-release (Mga, 2, i586)

Closing as fixed.

It can't go in Mageia 1 updates, because the package wasn't in Mdv 2010

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => FIXED
