pacman -c

hi,
i have a problem with pacman:

19:06:42 root@/home/matze $ pacman -Syuc
removing old packages from cache... done.
19:06:49 root@/home/matze $ pacman -c
19:06:52 root@/home/matze $  

Which one is cleaning the cache? Is there a bug?
:?:


THX!!

Re: pacman -c

pacman -Sc to clean only the old packages
pacman -Scc to clean all the cache
pacman -Sy to sync the package list
pacman -Su to upgrade all the system.

Re: pacman -c

capital letters are operations... lowercase ones modify those operations... so "pacman -c" has no operation and is not doing anything

Re: pacman -c

no no no... that's not what I meant - do a "pacman --help" and it will display all the operations... so we'll use -S (for sync)
do a "pacman -Sh" and it will display help for the -S operation... this will display all modifiers for the operation... in this case "c" shows up in this list.
