I recently got into Arch Linux via EndeavourOS. I’m trying to find a way to remember all the Pacman and Yay commands, but I’m not able to find a good approach to remembering most of the commands.
Does anybody have any mnemonics to help with this? For example, how did you remember that Yay -Yc
was the command to remove all unneeded dependencies?
I’d just like to point out the objective fact that Yay is the best-named AUR helper . :3
As for the actual question, I’m not sure how many I should be using? I kinda just remember -Syu and -Ss and -Ql because I use them muchly; for most else pacman --help -Q/S/whatever helps lots. For the last little bit, there’s rage-searxing and doing what some mean person on the Arch forums says to do :D
Edit: I think a mean person from the Arch forums downvoted me :D
I just did yay bauh and now it’s fine
