    Ok, but I was expecting something a bit more automated then opening a list of package in kate and comparing it to my list of installed AUR package… Plus it’s 400 package so that’s a lot of things to check and plenty of space to miss one package by manually checking.

    But I get it I’m lazy and just need to script something myself. This is affecting so many people I thought we would have a script to check quickly if you are “infected”.

    Edit : thanks for the numerous script sent as reply ! But I’m all set now, thanks !

      how many aur packages do you have? Most people i know have like AT MOST 20 or so packages from the aur. Which takes less then 2 mins to manually check against the list.

        I’m not home for a few days so I can’t check yet.

        But I think I have something like 3/4 packages at the most.

        But I need to compare that to a 400+ list I’m not sure I agree with you it’s that easy to do rigorously.

          Not sure I understand - if you only have 3-4 packages you can just search for them specifically in the long list?

          Even if you have 50 or 100s of packages, bash makes it pretty doable

          comm -12 <(sort -u file1.txt) <(sort -u file2.txt) > common.txt
          

          Should spit out only the packages appearing in both lists (done by memory so may not be 100%)
