Running "apt-get autoclean" after "apt-get clean" doesn't make sense.<br>
<br>
"clean" removes all downloaded deb files from "/var/cache/apt/archives/".<br>
<br>
"autoclean" removes all downloaded deb files from<br>
"/var/cache/apt/archives/" that are no longer downloadable from the<br>
repositories.<br>
<br>
Running "rm /var/cache/apt/archives/*" after running "apt-get clean"<br>
doesn't make sense either. Not only won't there be any deb files there<br>
to remove but that command won't delete files in<br>
"/var/cache/apt/archives/partial/".<br>
<br>
If you don't want to run "apt-get clean", you could replace it with<br>
"find /var/cache/apt/archives -type f -delete".<br>
<br>
(FTR, there's no relationship between "apt-get clean" and "apt-get<br>
update". The latter downloads files to "/var/lib/apt/lists/".)<br>
