When I run paru -Sua
it result like this.
:: Looking for AUR upgrades...
:: Looking for devel upgrades...

lib32-p11-kit lib32-pam lib32-systemd lib32-xz lib32-zstd
there is nothing to do
Why I see this warning and how to solve it? Did I do something wrong or something change?
You can list the packages that were previously installed as a dependency for another package but are no longer required using
pacman -Qdt
. It should be safe to remove all of them. (Some of them might only be required to build another package from the AUR, not to use it. But those will automatically get reinstalled the next time you update/install that package using paru).You can automatically remove all obsolete dependencies when uninstalling a package using
pacman -Rns
. For example,pacman -Rns wine
would have likely uninstalled thelib32-…
packages for you automatically (assuming no other package depends on them).The list is long. I there any way to remove them all at once? I looked on the man page but I couldn’t find.
pacman -Qqdt
will list the obsolete packages without the version number. You can pass the output of this command (i.e. all the obsolete packages) back to pacman using$(…)
command substitution:sudo pacman -Rns $(pacman -Qqdt)
