:I looked around my system for what's taking up room and found 2.6 GB in this 
:directory, dating back to July. Some packages are present in three different 
:versions. I added it to the list of directories to clean periodically 
:(like /tmp). Do you think this change should be made in the base system?

:I believe in Yellow when I'm in Sweden and in Black when I'm in Wales.

    Hmm.  That directory is not part of the base system until you install
    pkgin.  We could pre-create it as its own HAMMER PFS but probably not
    for this release cycle.  I'm not sure why it is putting a cache there,
    maybe there is an environment variable or something we can set to
    change the location.
