Trying to clear out useless apps and dependencies… When I enter sudo pacman -R $(pacman -Qdtq) after password, I get an error “no targets specified”… when I enter pacman -Qdtq there is no output meaning all cleared. Is this a normal behavior since all cleared?
Hi @gychang,
I’m no expert, and do not try to give myself away as one. As far as I can tell, the q in
pacman -Qdtq
is for quiet. So it stands to reason some of the output would be suppressed.
No, I don’t know what our why as mine isn’t quiet. But I imagine if there are no errors and everything is working, then there isn’t any problem.
no , remove only dependencies
if error : is that you do not have any orphan dependency (if we use pacman -Rs it’s normal)
just confused as “no targets specified”…, guess there is nothing wrong with command working?
If pacman -Qdt prints nothing, then there are indeed no targets to remove passing it to sudo pacman -R.
