+# Package Cache
+
+Clean the cache of old packages in `/var/cachepacman/pkg/`:
+
+```bash
+ls /var/cache/pacman/pkg/ | wc -l
+sudo pacman -Sc
+ls /var/cache/pacman/pkg/ | wc -l
+```
+And the same for `yay` (with `-Yc` to remove old dependencies):
+
+```bash
+ls ~/.cache/yay/ | wc -l
+yay -Sc
+yay -Yc
+ls ~/.cache/yay/ | wc -l
+```
+
+# New Configs
+
+If you chance a configuration file, such as `/etc/environment`, and `pacman` wants to update the file, it will place `/etc/environment.pacnew`.
+
+Check the new files, then look at the difference between the `pacman` version, and your version.
+
+```bash
+sudo find /etc/ /var/ /usr/ -name "*.pacnew" 
+diff /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist*
+```
+
+Either,
+
+- Update the files manually,
+
+```bash
+sudo -e /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
+sudo rm /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.pacnew
+```
+
+Or,
+
+- use a tool like `pacdiff` to view the changes next to each other, and select them with `vim`.
+
+
+```bash
+sudo pacman -S pacman-contrib
+sudo pacdiff
+```
