Rust Arch Linux Updater

A program that automates the arch update process with cleanup and auto removal.

Currently, a WIP. USE AT OWN RISK

Setup

The current state requires that you build it yourself. The most up-to-date version will be on the development branch.

Just run cargo build --release and copy the executable from ./target/release/rust-archlinux-update to wherever you need it.

Distribution on pre-built binaries, cargo, etc. is in the works.

Usage

The default behavior of the command is to use pacman to run a package update, auto-removal, and cache clear in that order.

In the future the command will support AUR helpers like paru and those will need to be activated with a flag.
