Hello, you're right. This particular case is that always the same version of xmonad and only the "build version change. It keeps the n-1 version instead of n. It's a bug I've to check why.

This helped, now pacleaner runs without errors. Another problem I get is that it deletes the wrong (newest) packages. Here is an example, it should not delete the current version, should it? pkg > pacman -Q | acki xmonad xmonad 0.11-10 xmonad-contrib 0.11.3-2 pkg > pacleaner -m | acki xmonad xmonad-contrib-0.11.2-2 xmonad-0.11-10 pkg > ll | acki xmonad -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 722K 28. Dez 23:30 xmonad-0.11-10-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 755K 5. Sep 2013 xmonad-0.11-7-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 723K 27.

Ok I've got it, in your cache directory you have some package named hipchat : hipchat-2.2.1221-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz hipchat-2.2.1287-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz hipchat-2.2.1309-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz hipchat-2.2.1328-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz This is not an official archlinux package and the format of file's name is wrong (package release is missing between version number and arch version). To solved your problem delete or move manually these package from /var/cache/pacman/pkg/ I will check to improve the code to ignore wrong format file.

Do you have python3 installed? Let's continue this thread on github https://gist.github.com/hoschi/2864d41b9e63bf19a317

~/.config/pacleaner/pacleaner_config doesn't exist, but here is all other info you requested -> https://gist.github.com/hoschi/2864d41b9e63bf19a317 I can translate the german part if you need this.

@vollekannehoschi Could you check the default pacman path : $ pacman -v and listing the content of the cache : $ ls /var/cache/pacman/pkg/ and the content of the file /usr/share/paclaner/pacleaner_config and ~/.config/pacleaner/pacleaner_config if existing.

Current version doesn't work for me :( ~ > pacleaner usage: pacleaner [-h] [--uninstalled] [--morethan] [--delete] [--no-confirm] [--number n] [--cache_path PATH] [--installed_path PATH] pacleaner: error: Need to specify -u, -t or both ~ > pacleaner -u Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/pacleaner", line 218, in <module> pkgfiles = PkgFileList(args.cache_path) File "/usr/bin/pacleaner", line 121, in __init__ self.pkg_list.append(PkgFile(f, path)) File "/usr/bin/pacleaner", line 71, in __init__ self.name, self.version, self.pkg_version, rest = filename.rsplit('-', 3) ValueError: need more than 3 values to unpack ~ >

Version 2.0 include delete confirmation, more options and config file to tune the default options : - database Path - cache Path - Number of package to keep in cache - Delete with or without confirmation

Hello, Script and PKGBUILD updated. Fully compliant with pacman 4.2. Enjoy!
