Hi,
Been looking into adding a new option for paccache that would remove all uninstalled packages (and at the same time keep the default number of the others). So,
paccache -r --removeuninstalled
would be the same as running
paccache -r && paccache -ruk0
But before sending in my patch/option-proposal, I would like to hear what you think a good option name would be? I think "removeuninstalled" is pretty descriptive, but it's a bit long.. and I wasn't able come up with any good shorter names.
My 2 cents :) Maybe --prune would be a good choice? I've seen that option in cleaning routines to mean a more thorough strategy. The help message could elaborate what it really does. -- A: Because it obfuscates the reading. Q: Why is top posting so bad?
