Remember that this will fail to find real duplicates if you're using testing and community-testing. What I did was make a new config with all custom servers, testing, and community-testing commented out and just supplied the pacman command in the given syntax (`pacman -Slq | cat - aurpkglist.txt | cut -d' ' -f1 | sort | uniq -d`) with the new configuration file via --config, resulting in a new syntax:
`pacman -Slq --config /path/to/commented/config | cat - aurpkglist.txt | cut -d' ' -f1 | sort | uniq -d`
This gave me more reliable results.
Of course, this will also find "duplicates" inside the repos you use. Btw, you could also just use: `pacman -Slq core extra community | cat - aurpkglist.txt | cut -d' ' -f1 | sort | uniq -d` Might be easier than creating a separate pacman(8) config.
