How can I uninstall all packages on my system, which have been installed as a dependency, and aren't needed any longer? (Because I've uninstalled the dependent package or because the dependent package no longer depends on that dependency) I've read about pacman -Qe, but this lists packages I've explicitly installed and don't want to remove. And please, don't just point to the wiki article, I've checked that already. Check again under https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pacman#Querying_package_databases (look for "orphan"). Best, Ista Thanks in advance, Lukas
