How to list installed packages with specific arch?
Hello,
i want to migrate from i686 to x86_64, so i listed foreign packages like
pacman -Qqm
and it shows lots of packages. But like half of them are architecture independent. (Shell scipts, TTF fonts, Java apps, etc...) They all had arch=any in PKGBUILD.
Is there way to get list of these packages so i don't have to reinstall all of them?
Also i'd like to do something like pacman -Qqm --arch=i686 to get list of foreign packages that are i686 specific (so it does not contain arch=any packages).

There may be a better interface, but I would just grep through /var/lib/pacman/local/

pacsift (from aur/pacutils) can do this.
pacsift --local --arch=i686 | cut -d '/' -f 2Last edited by eschwartz (2016-03-16 04:14:52)

Well this somehow works, however i can't grep which packages are available from repos and which are not. So i'd rather had some way to get pacman to do the task.
grep -Pzor '%ARCH%\nany' /var/lib/pacman/local | grep pacman | cut -d / -f 6 | cut -d - -f -2Last edited by harvie (2016-03-16 04:31:20)

It's kinda neat, but still can't match foreign packages as pacman -Qm or native as pacman -Qn

So pipe the results of that to pacman -Qn ...
