Talking about "pacman -R": Do u guys know what the difference between the options "-c" and "-s" is? Which config files are deleted with option "-n"?
I want to maintain my system as clear and uncluttered as possible, but my english is not the best
.... uff °_° .. shitty i had another question :shock: :? ... forgot, well i think it'll come to my mind later,..
regards,

-s will remove any packages that the package you're removing needs but no other packages need.
-c will remove any packages that need the package you're removing.
-n I'm not 100% sure about, but I think it removes packages from places like /etc/ that were installed by your package but were changed since install (as opposed to renaming them to file.pacsave)

thx for reply!
-s will remove any packages that the package you're removing needs but no other packages need.
-c will remove any packages that need the package you're removing.
So, that does mean BOTH options will NOT conflict witch each other, and i can remove my packages with: "pacman -Rnsc $pkg" ?

Cerebral did a really good job explaining this to me when I started. See this thread:

In fact, i mean this should be the default options when removing a pkg.
