I am in the process of cleaning up my system. And I see a lot of space occupied by this folder /var/cache/apt/archives (1.5GB). Is it absolutely necessary to keep all these archives?
You don't need to keep them around if you don't want them. Executing a
sudo apt-get clean
will clean out the directory.

删除nginx，–purge包括配置文件
sudo apt-get --purge remove nginx
- 1
自动移除全部不使用的软件包
sudo apt-get autoremove
列出与nginx相关的软件 并删除显示的软件
dpkg --get-selections|grep nginxsudo apt-get --purge remove nginxsudo apt-get --purge remove nginx-common sudo apt-get --purge remove nginx-core
再次执行
dpkg --get-selections|grep nginxwhich nginx # 不在显示nginx
这样就可以完全卸载掉nginx包括配置文件
注意点：首先需要停止nginx的服务sudo service nginx stop ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
sudo apt-get remove nginx nginx-common # Removes all but config files.
sudo apt-get purge nginx nginx-common # Removes everything.
sudo apt-get autoremove # After using any of the above commands, use this in order to remove dependencies used by nginx which are no longer required.
