Good afternoon, everyone.
After wrestling this for 17 days, here's where things stand:
---------------
-bash.9[~]: du -hx -d1 /
5.4G /var
4.0K /system-upgrade-root
4.0K /srv
17G /usr
16K /lost+found
51M /etc
4.0K /sysroot
4.0K /mnt
1.4G /root
4.0K /media
238M /opt
4.0K /.cache
24G /
-bash.10[~]: df -hP

-bash.11[~]:
---------------
A lot of no-longer-needed files have been deleted.
A lot of valuable space has been recovered.
A lot has been learned.
I did not try everything; I did not respond to every post, but it was
impractical to do so. The efforts to help were appreciated.
There are more unneeded files in the '/' filesystem (and elsewheres),
but it does not add up to enough space to justify the time and effort.
Ed:
* I did research the other logs in /etc/, and the management of them,
but decided they were too small to further pursue. The few long log
files are auto-deleted anyway.
* I did not forget your suggestion of re-partitioning to shift space
from /home and using that for a new /var partition. Currently, I don't
think any media I have has space for /home. And doing the
re-partitioning would take more help from this list than this thread did.
I'm marking this thread SOLVED. I thank all participants for their
help, patience, and understanding.
Bill.
