BerryCore v0.81 adds ncdu 1.22 (disk usage TUI) and chafa 1.14.4 (terminal image viewer) as core packages — same install model as wget and dcron. Also includes dcron, wget 1.25.0, and qpkg fixes from earlier releases if you have not upgraded yet.


ncdu 1.22 (core package)

Interactive disk usage analyzer — find what's eating space, drill into folders, delete from the UI.

qpkg update
ncdu /accounts/1000/shared/misc
ncdu /accounts/1000/r              # SD card

Keys: ↑↓ move, Enter enter dir, d delete, n/s/C sort, q quit

Notes:

  • Needs a real TTY — use Term49 or ssh -t passport ncdu ~
  • Export scans: ncdu -o /var/tmp/scan.json /path then ncdu -f /var/tmp/scan.json

chafa 1.14.4 (core package)

View photos and images in the terminal — JPEG, PNG, GIF, and more.

chafa --version
chafa-show photo.jpg
chafa-show -w 48 ~/Pictures/image.png

Notes:

  • chafa-show is the easy wrapper; chafa is the low-level CLI
  • Works best with TERM=xterm-256color (set automatically)
  • SD card: /accounts/1000/removable/sdcard/...

dcron 4.5 (core package)

If upgrading from before v0.80:

cron-start
crontab -e
crontab -l

GNU Wget 1.25.0 (core package)

If upgrading from v0.78 or earlier:

wget --version
wget -O- https://example.com/ | head

Upgrade

qpkg update
# or manually:
sh install.sh --upgrade -y --dir $NATIVE_TOOLS
. $NATIVE_TOOLS/env.sh

Verify:

cat $NATIVE_TOOLS/VERSION    # 0.81
ncdu --version
chafa --version
cron-start && crontab -l

qpkg update fix

  • qpkg update now runs a non-interactive upgrade into your existing $NATIVE_TOOLS tree
  • install.sh --upgrade -y --dir $NATIVE_TOOLS for manual upgrades
  • Per-package install stamps (.berrycore_pkg_stamps/) so new core packages (ncdu, chafa, dcron) install correctly on upgrade
