hi, I could really use help on a nix machine where I have many old packages in the store - mainly multiple copies of libreoffice and cef, which I haven't used in months. I run nix-collect-garbage a bunch and I finally ran dust on the root to see where the problem is:

Is there any reason these would not be cleaned up by garbage collection? I really need to rebuild this machine because my store partition is far too small to handle this. Hope there is a reason or method to learn about the cache invalidation rules here.

@c4lliope:matrix.orgc4lliope*I'm sure libreoffice is unused, unsure if something depends on cef.00:58:51
