  • cruft-ng

    rewrite of Debian "cruft" package

    • Another tool for identifying software dark matter on a Debian based system is cruft-ng:

    Eventually it will enable a Debian system to account for (in some way) every single file visible on the live system.

  • express-c

    Fast, unopinionated, minimalist web framework for C

    • I’ve used an approach to copy only the shared libs from the build container to the production container. This not only gets rid of most of this “dark matter” but results in much smaller containers!
