That's because you'd already cleaned up a lot of the cruft. If you wait
until just before your next upgrade, you may be surprised at how much
you recover.
I have not yet tried this tool as a non-privileged Fedora user. I have
not yet installed it on my windows-7 box.
Basically, you'll be cleaning up your own home directory. Useful, of
course, but it won't help with upgrading.
Recently I had disk-space problems when using mock on my F29 box. /var
is 50 GiB but much of that was full of old files which I have now
deleted. I've just looked at this, my main system box, running the el7
clone SL7.7, using konqueror file size view.
Again /var is 50 GiB, of which 10.6 GiB is free. 27.4 GiB is occupied
by /var/lib/yum/plugins/local, rpms dating from 2012 (Canon driver
downloads) and others from 2014 to about a year ago when I disabled the
local-repo plugin and yum stopped taking forever to do anything. Maybe
I botched that installation. 7317 obsolete files...
