  Package: gwibber
  Version: 1.2.0+bzr355-2

  Hi,

  I have been using gwibber for a few weeks (I think more or less since you have
  announced the packages on your blog).

  I use it with my Twitter account, and follow the public timeline.

  I have just noticed Gwibber cache folder contains more than 120,000
  pictures!

  $:~/.cache/gwibber/images$ find -type f | wc -l
  122489
  $:~/.cache/gwibber/images$ du -sh
  547M    .

  It seems these are thumbnails from the public timeline.
  Maybe Gwibber could remove older pictures automatically? A config option with a
  maximum age and/or total size should be perfect.

  Thanks.
