My aim is to have the janitor running at startup, with a pre-configured profile (e.g. clear redundant packages and browser cache).

The website is lacking any documentation or usage instructions, and I could not find any information on this here as well.

I tried, naturally, to start ubuntu-tweak from the command line, hoping additional API exists that will come through in this (allegedly) simple task.

I only got as far as:

ubuntu-tweak -f janitor

which is a step in the right direction, but what's still missing is a command for the clear action. Is such a command available, or is there any better way of achieving the desired behavior?
