A set of helper scripts for handling arch linux packages

Packaging Scripts

The Scripts

• addpkg - add a package to a repository and then automatically move its package tarfiles to that repository's respective cache directory
• delpkg - remove a package from a repository by manipulating the db file, and then remove that respective package's tarballs in that repository's directory
• fqo ("fuzzy pacman -Qo") - using fzf and mlocate, select a file and then pass that file to $(pacman -Qo)
• pug2 - upload a gist of explicitly installed pacman packages

addpkg

• Either take all pacman package files in the current working directory or from the command line and add them to the given repository
• Automatically move said package files to the repository's cache directory

delpkg

• Take the names of packages and a repository, then delete those packages from said repository
• Automatically delete all tarfiles of those packages from the repository

fqo

• Given a query, pass to locate and then pass the results to fzf
• Select a file and then pass that file to pacman -Qo

pug2

• Automatically update a gist containing explicitly installed pacman packages on the system
• Script inspired by ventto/pug

Implementation Notes

• All code internally uses pathlib for path handling
