[2026-07-30T00:00:07Z] <stilic> hi
[2026-07-30T00:00:50Z] <stilic> is there a way to automatically remove unused packages from my kiss linux install?
[2026-07-30T00:01:23Z] <pita> cron maybe
[2026-07-30T03:13:48Z] <stilic> pita: i was moreso talking about software that doesn't have any deps nor revdeps
[2026-07-30T03:14:13Z] <stilic> tho i could always write a script myself
[2026-07-30T06:23:10Z] <sad_plan> stilic: automatic removal of orphaned packages sounds dangerous on kiss. your wm is considered an orphan, thus is subjected for automatic removal. you could probably create a post-install script to remove make dependencies, but if other packages depends on these, things are breaking if you rebuild those too
[2026-07-30T06:23:53Z] <sad_plan> you could obvously counter this with a pre-build script, but I cant help but feel tha youre just making unneccessary writes on your disk for no reason
[2026-07-30T09:27:48Z] <stilic> sad_plan: what i need isn't a cron task or such, it's something like `emerge --depclean` from gentoo or `https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Pacman/Tips_and_tricks#Removing_unused_packages_(orphans)`
[2026-07-30T10:06:16Z] <sad_plan> well, you can just make a wrapper for kiss to remove a set of packages when you use kiss. I dont belive it has to be very elaborate either
