Saw this when I was playing some more with -D today.
./src/pacman/pacman -D --help
usage: lt-pacman {-D --database}<options> <package(s)>
options:
--asdeps mark packages as non-explicitly installed
--asexplicit mark packages as explicitly installed
--config<path> set an alternate configuration file
--logfile<path> set an alternate log file
--noconfirm do not ask for any confirmation
--noprogressbar do not show a progress bar when downloading files
--noscriptlet do not execute the install scriptlet if one exists
-v, --verbose be verbose
--debug display debug messages
-r, --root<path> set an alternate installation root
-b, --dbpath<path> set an alternate database location
--cachedir<dir> set an alternate package cache location
--arch<arch> set an alternate architecture
Are some of these options used with -D, or can they be removed? I am
thinking of --noprogressbar, --noscriptlet, --arch, --noconfirm (?).
I think these show with every operation; they make no more sense with
-Q either, right?
That code is a bit of fun; if someone wants to fix it up a bit to make
it show saner option lists then that would be pretty cool.
I have added this to my ever increasing TODO list. But anyone else
should feel free to tackle it.
I will also file a feature request on the bug tracker so this does not
get lost.
