@connaisseur I will check what I can do... it should not be too much difficult, the script must ignore the file /var/lib/pacman/local/ALPM_DB_VERSION which is not a directory. Unfortunately I don't have a lot of free time right now, I can't promise it soon.

Sadly with pacman 4.2.0 this no longer works! Package database changed format. If somebody is able to fix it, this would be verrrrrrry fine!

I've just update the PKGBUILD. The script is now available from the simple command pacleaner. I think about maintain the script...

In PKGFILE, should url= not be source= ? Otherwise, the source is not automagically downloaded.

New version is ready. With more options; optional paths, number of packages to keep.

@Neutrino: i was thinking about rewriting the script. Its pretty nasty : / Then i could implement that... or you could do it yourself..

this is what I searched for but I have a different path to the cache

This does not delete all files in /var/cache/pacman/pkg, as -Scc does, this will delete the files of installed packages that have more then two files eg: /var/cache/pacman/pkg/xfce-utils-4.6.2-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz /var/cache/pacman/pkg/xfce-utils-4.6.2-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz /var/cache/pacman/pkg/xfce-utils-4.8.1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz /var/cache/pacman/pkg/xfce-utils-4.8.2-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz In this example pacleaner.py -d cache will delete the two oldest files, xfce-utils-4.6.2-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz and 4.6.2-3-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz. This will ensure that you can rollback to the previous version.

Sorry for VERY late update. Now it supports the "new" .xz extension.
