[arch-general] Remove duplicate packages from /var/cache/pacman/pkg script updated

2010-09-02 Thread David C. Rankin
In case anyone uses it, I updated my fduppkg script that scans /var/cache/pacman/pkg and moves duplicate packages to a separate directory so you can either keep the current + last package sets or just delete the dups. This update just cleans up the output and adds an -s | --silent option that s
