where have archfoster gone??

I found this package archfoster which says it would remove it used to weed out unwanted packages from arch. but it seems the package is outdated and does not work as per the comments. Now, this kind of stuff is of great use especially in linux/gnu environment. Does anyone know of any such app, preferably gui. I believe this kind of package must be included in the base system.

I'm not sure what that script is supposed to do, but pacman -Qt or pacman -Qm should allow you to list posslbly redundant packages.
