Pacman 简介
简介
Manjaro 的软件包管理器，Pamac 配置在 Manjaro 的大多数版本中。在 Manjaro 的所有版本里，均包含着来源自 Arch Linux 的 Pacman 软件包管理工具。而 Pacman 还包括一些 Pamac 并不具备的高级功能。
需要了解的关键信息：
- Pacman 已被默认安装在 Manjaro Linux 中
- Pacman 大部分的开发和维护任务，由 Arch Linux 的开发者完成
- Pacman 只能在命令行下使用，如果你更喜欢图形化的软件包管理器，请查看 Pamac 或 Octopi
- Pacman 可以只使用官方公布的 Manjaro 仓库。另有专门的文章介绍，适用于 Arch 用户软件仓库(AUR) 的 flatpaks 和 snaps 软件包
安装更新
更新包数据库，并更新系统上的所有软件包
To force a full refresh of the package database and update all packages on the system. It may necessary when switching branches or switching mirrors to avoid inconsistent metadata. Inconsistent metadata will be obvious if you get 404 Not Found for certain packages.
强制更新整个包数据库，更新系统上的所有软件包，同时允许降级部分软件包。软件包的降级只可能发生于，从较新的分支切换到较老的分支时。（例如：从Testing分支切换到Stable分支）
To install the packages with the broken dependency or with the deadlock dependency. Two or more packages need to be updated and first is blocking second and second is blocking first one. Use carefully!
搜索软件包
To search the Manjaro repositories for available packages you can use the command pacman -Ss keyword. It will search both the package name and the description for the keyword. For example, to search for packages containing the keyword smplayer you could use:
You can search your installed packages in the same manner using -Qs instead of -Ss. To search your installed packages for smplayer:
Once you have found a package you can use pacman -Qi to get more information about an installed packages or pacman -Si for packages in the repos. Following the example above you could use
Finally, for a list of all installed packages on your system, enter the following command:
安装软件包
To install a software package, the basic syntax is pacman -S packagename. However, installing a package without updating the system will lead to a partial upgrade situation so all the examples here will use pacman -Syu packagename which will install the package and ensure the system is up to date. For example, to install smplayer the command is:
You will then be presented a list of software to install. You may notice this list has more packages than you requested. This is because many packages also have dependencies which are packages that must be installed in order for the software you selected to function properly.
Pacman can also directly install packages from the local system or a location on the internet. The format of that command is pacman -U packagelocation. For example, to install a copy of your package cache you could do something like:
Alternatively, you could get it directly from one of Manjaro's mirrors:
移除软件包
To remove a software package, the basic syntax is sudo pacman -R packagename. We could remove the smplayer package we installed above with:
This will remove the package, but will leave all the dependencies behind. If you also want to remove the unneeded dependencies you could use pacman -Rsu packagename as seen in this example:
Sometimes when you try to remove a package you will not be able to because there are other packages which depend on it. You can use pacman -Rc packagename to remove a package and everything that depends on it. Be careful to heed the above warning when using this option.
The most nuclear option is pacman -Rcs packagename. This will remove everything that depends on packagename and continue to do so on its dependencies. This should really only be used in exceptional circumstances such as when removing an entire desktop environment and trying not to leave anything behind.
Pacman usually also creates backup configuration files when deleting packages. To remove those, you can add n to any of the examples above. For example:
查看并移除孤立的软件包
To list all orphans, installed packages that are not used by anything else and should no longer be needed:
移除所有孤立的软件包：
Downloading Packages without Installing
In some cases it may be useful to download a package without installing. For example, to install on a different system that is not connected to the internet. This can be done with pacman -Sw packagename. For example:
The package and any rerquired dependencies will be downloaded to your pacman cache at /var/cache/pacman/pkg
确定文件所属的软件包
It is often useful to understand which package installed a file on your system. This is easy to do with pacman using pacman -Qo /path/to/filename. For example:
清除缓存
When pacman installs packages, it keeps a copy of all the old packages you have downloaded. This cache can be very useful if you have to install older packages in an emergency. However, left unchecked, this cache will grow very large over time. Systems running Pamac will already have access to its automated pacman cache cleaning functions. It is also possible to clean them manually using pacman.
To clear the cache of packages that are no longer installed, enter the following command:
Otherwise, to clear the cache completely, enter the following command (and use with care):
A safer way to remove old package cache files is to remove all packages except for the latest three package versions using paccache:
配置文件 pacman.conf
Pacman's settings are located in /etc/pacman.conf. This file is owned by root, please see this guide if you need more information on how to edit this file. A full reference to these options can be found in the Arch Wiki linked below. This sections features some settings that may be of particular interest to Manjaro users.
启用彩色输出
在默认情况下，pacman 为单色输出，但是，若你使用的终端支持彩色显示，启用彩色输出可以使输出结果更容易阅读。这可以通过删除注释或在文件中添加下面一行内容启用。

Showing PacMan Eating Power Pills
If you are bored of simply watching lines of hashes while downloading software packages in the terminal, why not change the progress bar to Pacman eating power pills instead? To enable this, simply add the line:
