Code:
dpkg-query -W -f='${Installed-Size}\t${Package}\n' '*' | sort -n | tail -50
can be used to show the top 50 space hogs.
Won't this just show the largest packages. But won't show if any of them are optified. For instance if you install libicu42 it is over 20 megs of libraries; but since the library is optified the amount of space in usr/lib is just the symlinks.
