/etc/skel tidy up

[Iain Buclaw]

The /etc/skel directory needs some serious clean up.

At the very least, all /home/ubuntu references need to go.
Ideally, anything that isn't an essential configuration file would like to be kept on. (ie: logs files, cache directories, etc).

This is a major cause for some rather strange non-bugs with the current OS, such as the inability for desktop background to keep between sessions, and the inability for firefox to restore a saved session.

Round One attached.

Okies, to clean up Firefox directory:
  cd /etc/skel/.mozilla/firefox/a9dixc0q.default/
  rm *sqlite* -f
  rm *.db -f
  rm X* -f
  rm *Cache* -r

And attached is the patch to fixup the rest.

The end result of round one is:
root@iain-laptop:/etc#du -hs skel.orig/
42M skel.orig/
root@iain-laptop:/etc#du -hs skel
6.8M skel

Slimmed her down by 35MBs

OK, we need the places.sqlite for bookmarks =)

Round-two attached.

Slimmed from: 7.0M to 5.7M

[bodhi.zazen (bodhi.zazen)]

I reviewed this and was able to get it down from 5.7 M to 4 M

4.9 M (the gui rounded)
