Hello,
I would like to ask you what happens with old packages after they’ve
been automatically updated? I just noticed that my root partition space
shrunk very much lately.
Thank you in advance

Do you mean, what happens with packages after they are installed?
=> I think they are deleted, but i don’t know that exactly.
I’ve just checked my zypper-cache-folder -/var/cache/zypp/-.
It’s 36,6 MB, how big is yours?
You can tidy up -/tmp-, if it has become very big.

My /var/cache/zypp folder is 47MB, I’m asking about updated packages
after autoupdate that downloaded new versions and new dependencies. For
instance, I had the Linux kernel 2.6.25 and now I have Linux kernel
2.6.27 installed but I see references and folders that contain 2.6.25. I
installed kernel-sources and now I see sources for both kernels, I
assume they are not deleted. Same goes for libraries and other
applications.
How can I remove the old things?

I always wondered the same thing. I have also noticed that even after a
uninstall with yast some files are left behind.
