Sudo pacman -Rns (pacman -Qtdq) deletes almost everything

[Kekin]

Hello,
I'm having trouble with the cleanup command A.K.A sudo pacman -Rns (pacman -Qtdq)

It is removing stuff it shouldn't. Its as if pacman forgot the dependencies or forgot what was explicitly installed

First thing is that orphans are not packages you don't need, they are packages installed as dependencies that no longer have anything depending on them. For example, if you install a meta-package and then remove the meta-package, all those packages will become orphans even though you may still be using those applications.

The next thing is that pacman -Rs will remove optional dependencies of other packages. This may not be what you want.

Lastly, you should start by looking at your actual orphans and deciding what should be converted to explicitly installed. What does pacman -Qtdq show you?

[Kekin]

pacman -Qtdq shows this

edit: i feel like things like nano shouldn't be in there, i used to run it once in a while to clean unused packages but in never included all that stuff

It looks to me like one of the Garuda meta-packages might have been removed since there are some key items on that list.

Either figure out what was removed and reinstall it or convert the packages you want to keep to explicitly installed.

[Kekin]

That sounds like a possibility, hopefully i don't have to go through the list to figure out what everything does lol

Not too sure how to do that though, what are the garuda meta-packages that should be installed and how do i convert a file to explicitly installed?

I tried reinstalling thunderbird but it still shows up under pacman -Qtdq

Thanks

[dalto]

pacman -D --asexplicit packagename will convert it to explicitly installed.

[Kekin]

@dalto

the Garuda meta-packages

Awesome thanks, idk what caused it but hopefully that takes care of it for good

[Kekin]

one more thing, I need someone with a working install to type pacman -Qi nano and tell me what it says under "required by" im hoping that might point me in the right direction.

[SGS]

Use micro, like all Garuda Linux User’s

sudo pacman -R nano

[Kekin]

ah interesting
mine says:

Install Reason  : Installed as a dependency for another package

i guess I'll have to try out this 'micro'

[FGD]

Strange, I have:
Required By : None
Install Reason : Explicitly installed

[SGS]

I got the same output, I just install nano for check the -Qi

[SGS]

@Kekin

I’ll have to try out this ‘micro’

Who likes nano will love micro

[BluishHumility]

One of my installs has this odd “orphan” thing too. Although my orphan list is not quite as extensive, it does have quite a few packages that I know I installed.

pacman -Qtdq
bluetooth-autoconnect
dconf-editor
eog
ethtool
firedragon
firefox
garuda-settings-manager
geocode-glib
intel-ucode
js78
kfiredragonhelper
lib32-readline
libcddb
libibus
libvisual
libxnvctrl
micro
neard
networkmanager-support
ntp
python-beaker
python-nspektr
rest
ruby-dbus
signal-desktop
t1lib
usbip
vivaldi
xdg-user-dirs
xf86-video-intel

Signal and Vivaldi browser are especially odd to see on this list; not only did I explicitly install them, but what other package could possibly be using these as a dependency?

The only thing I can think of is the Setup Assistant post-install wizard could play a role somehow, because I often use that tool to install my browsers and Signal. That’s only a shot in the dark though, I’m really not sure.

This isn’t the first time this has come up; Technetium had a thread over the summer where he had tons of packages this was happening to:

Suddenly many incorrectly orphaned packages

I was doing a routine update, and suddenly see many packages marked 'orphaned'. I've seen something similar happen when my local repo distrusts packages in routine due to maintainer change. Generally this is easy enough to handle en masse with aurto add $(pacman -Qqm) however this time is different... The packages marked orphaned here are NOT ones that I've added to a local repo, they're from Chaotic-AUR! Upon reinstallation they are still marked orphans; why would this happen? [tech@mango ~]$…

This command does work perfectly fine to get packages off the list, and marked as explicitly installed:

@dalto

pacman -D --asexplicit packagename

It is not always clear if a false orphan should be kept or not, however. The significance of some of the libraries are often not obvious, for example. And how did ntp end up an orphan? Nothing needs that?!

[Kekin]

very odd...

I did find a way to filter out some in bulk using the AI chat

[Kekin]

i am left with these

appstream-glib
geocode-glib
glibmm
grpc
guiscrcpy
patchelf
rest

are they safe to delete?

[Austin]

sudo pacman -Rns (pacman -Qtdq)
For me, this command doesn't work with zsh; maybe some syntax difference.
Could someone point out the correct command for zsh?

[dalto]

@Austin

sudo pacman -Rns (pacman -Qtdq)

You are missing the $

sudo pacman -Rns $(pacman -Qtdq)

[UltraBlack]

for real this is the best purpose I have seen somebody use chatgpt for. Easy text processing tool. Like SED or AWK but for people who have absolutely no clue how to use it

[dalto]

@UltraBlack

Like SED or AWK but for people who have absolutely no clue how to use it

The difference would be that sed/awk wouldn’t give you a mix of good and bad data without any way to differentiate between the two…
