Ok, I'll bite. Why aren't we working on merging expac (or something like expac)? Adding yet another tool tool which relies on parsing unstable output from pacman seems like a step in the wrong direction.
I know it's not the place to report this, but talking about it, expac is under MIT license, while the package in the repo is marked as GPL. Anyhow, what is pacman's policy on merging third-party software with non-GPL license?
Poof. As the sole author, I allow it to be licensed under $insert_any_license_compatible_with_gpl.
MIT is totally compatible with GPL, btw....
We still need to replace pacsysclean (which does not work at all with the size units). I've fixed pacsize, which can replace pacsysclean until expac would not be merged, or if expac does not get merged at all. I've been playing around with expac: with a few changes it could easily superseeds paclist, pacsysclean/pacsize, pacsearch, and the zillion of user scripts out there. A big +1 for expac integration. -- Pierre Neidhardt Ideas don't stay in some minds very long because they don't like solitary confinement.
