Original report
What do you need?
Deduplicate package entries in the package installer (omarchy-pkg-install) when using third-party Arch-compatible repositories like CachyOS, Chaotic-AUR, etc.
Current Behavior
When CachyOS repositories are added to /etc/pacman.conf (for optimized x86-64-v4/znver4 packages), packages that exist in both CachyOS and official Arch repositories appear twice in the fzf picker, even though both show identical information from the highest-priority repository.
Example:
- unrar appears twice in the list
- thunar-archive-plugin appears twice in the list
- Both entries show the same repository (cachyos-extra-znver4) and version in the preview
Why This Happens
The script ~/.local/share/omarchy/bin/omarchy-pkg-install uses:
pkg_names=$(pacman -Slq | fzf "${fzf_args[@]}")pacman -Slq lists package names from all repositories without deduplication. When a package exists in multiple repos, it appears multiple times in the output.
Proposed Solution
Deduplicate package names to show only the highest-priority repository version:
# Current:
pkg_names=$(pacman -Slq | fzf "${fzf_args[@]}")
# Proposed:
pkg_names=$(pacman -Slq | awk '\!seen[$1]++' | fzf "${fzf_args[@]}")This preserves only the first occurrence of each package name (highest-priority repository in /etc/pacman.conf).
Impact
- Severity: Low (cosmetic/UX issue)
- Functionality: Not affected - installing either duplicate installs the correct version
- User experience: Reduced visual clutter, less confusion for users with third-party repos

CachyOS kernel 6.17.1-2-cachyos with CachyOS repositories (cachyos-znver4, cachyos-core-znver4, cachyos-extra-znver4)

**What do you need?**
Deduplicate package entries in the package installer (`omarchy-pkg-install`) when using third-party Arch-compatible repositories like CachyOS, Chaotic-AUR, etc.
## Current Behavior
When CachyOS repositories are added to `/etc/pacman.conf` (for optimized x86-64-v4/znver4 packages), packages that exist in both CachyOS and official Arch repositories appear **twice** in the fzf picker, even though both show identical information from the highest-priority repository.
**Example:**
- `unrar` appears twice in the list
- `thunar-archive-plugin` appears twice in the list
- Both entries show the same repository (cachyos-extra-znver4) and version in the preview
## Why This Happens
The script `~/.local/share/omarchy/bin/omarchy-pkg-install` uses:
```bash
pkg_names=$(pacman -Slq | fzf "${fzf_args[@]}")
```
`pacman -Slq` lists package names from **all repositories** without deduplication. When a package exists in multiple repos, it appears multiple times in the output.
## Proposed Solution
Deduplicate package names to show only the highest-priority repository version:
```bash
# Current:
pkg_names=$(pacman -Slq | fzf "${fzf_args[@]}")
# Proposed:
pkg_names=$(pacman -Slq | awk '\!seen[$1]++' | fzf "${fzf_args[@]}")
```
This preserves only the first occurrence of each package name (highest-priority repository in `/etc/pacman.conf`).
