  • Remove all but the 3 most recent package versions from the pacman cache:
    paccache -r
  • Set the number of package versions to keep:
    paccache -rk num_versions
  • Perform a dry-run and show the number of candidate packages for deletion:
    paccache -d
  • Move candidate packages to a directory instead of deleting them:
    paccache -m path/to/directory
