Actually you can do this already, just parse the output of pacman -Ql <package> with find or du or something, (I'm not a shell expert) then sum the size of the individual files up. Maybe someone would be so kind to write this. It'll be better this way because it will take locally modified files into account. _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [email protected] http://www.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
