Installed files remain available in pamac manag

Support Snap/Flatpak
21

Why are the entries …runcated?

Also, the first one I searched for, is in extra repository:

 $ pacman -Ss protonmail-bridge
extra/protonmail-bridge 3.12.0-4
    Integrate ProtonMail paid account with any program that supports IMAP and SMTP (Qt desktop application)
extra/protonmail-bridge-core 3.12.0-4
    Integrate ProtonMail paid account with any program that supports IMAP and SMTP (core executable and
    daemon)

See which ones you need are in the repos, with a suitable version which works for you?

Exactly; I mentioned the un-maintained state of the system here:

… the OP doesn’t even have the current package for pacdiff present, it seems.

If this command

sudo pacman -Syu pacman-contrib

doesn’t return something like “Already installed. Reinstalling (y/n)” then this system must be significantly out-of-date.

Full output of that command on my system:

Summary

These two are Freedesktop
Fre… …sktop.Platform freedesktop-sdk-22.08.27 22.08 system
Fre… …sktop.Platform freedesktop-sdk-24.08.2 24.08 system

These are gnome platform files
GNO… …gnome.Platform 42 system
GNO… …gnome.Platform 44 system
GNO… …gnome.Platform 46 system

I have no idea why truncated

Looks like another person has a similar problem

No, the quoted user has updates available which are always listed a updates.
This thread is about left-over Flatpak runtimes which are not removed recursively.

if [[ -d ~/.local/share/flatpak ]]; then
                echo -ne "\nClean user flatpaks (y/N)? "

                read -r response
                if [[ $response =~ ^(yes|y|Y|Yes)$ ]]; then
                    flatpak uninstall --unused --user

            fi

            if [[ -d /etc/flatpak/installations.d || -d /var/lib/flatpak ]]; then
                echo -ne "\nClean system flatpaks (y/N)? "

                read -r response
                if [[ $response =~ ^(yes|y|Y|Yes)$ ]]; then

                    flatpak uninstall --unused ;
                    sudo flatpak repair ;
                else
                    echo -e "Skipped\n"
                fi
            fi

            if [[ -d ~/.var/app ]]; then
                echo -e "\nClear flatpak application data (y/N)? "

                read -r response
                if [[ $response =~ ^(yes|y|Y|Yes)$ ]]; then
                    flatpak uninstall --delete-data ;
                else
                    echo -e "Skipped\n"
                fi
            fi

For flatpaks … which can be shortened to

flatpak uninstall --unused --user
flatpak repair --user 
flatpak uninstall --unused 
sudo flatpak repair 
flatpak uninstall --delete-data

You could just ignore pamac-manager and disable Flatpak support there.

I use Flatpak for GNU Cash & Proton Mail Bridge, so I do not want to get rid of it completely. But it is tempting.

33

Don’t ignore Flatpak but the integration in pamac.

Just to note, regarding the flatpak updates remaining visible in Pamac’s GUI, an old topic has a solution that seems to work:
