Is there a way to list installed apps in order of most-used programs? Fedora 14.

Thanks.

Hmm must be a rpm -qa thing....

Yeah. Just for that reason, I thought rolf might know, but I guess he doesn't because he hasn't answered.

I don't think rpm tracks usage of installed binaries. Gave it a little thought, maybe in the logs, which are compressed by chron, so there might be a script someone has written, sometime, somewhere, to extract and parse those files for instances or times but idk and sounds rather icky, to me.

Yeah, it does to me, too.

Wonder if we could all get together and write a script that does this? A little proggie?

I mean, we already have "indexers" to track our files, ISPs to track our movements on the inet, why not have a script just for ourselves, that tracks something like this? It would help us to get rid of unused programs on our machines... nothing wrong with that?

Sounds like a job for b1o

You know, it really does.
