Is there a pacman command to list all installed Arch packages ?

Hello,

Does anyone know of a pacman command to list all installed Arch packages?
I know :
Code: [Select]
pacman -Qm
to list AUR packages, maybe there is an equivalent to list installed Arch packages ?

It would be very practical.

I searched, but found nothing...

Without any additional commands (just bash/zsh):
Code: [Select]
pacman -Qq | grep -Fxf <(pacman -Slq extra community) | grep -Fxvf <(pacman -Slq system world galaxy)

Add universe to the rightmost grep if you have it.

Use paclist from pacman-contrib.
Thanks !
I tried :
Code: [Select]
paclist extra community
If I understood correctly, this lists the packages installed from the artix repositories available also in the arch repositories.

An example :
The first package listed is a52dec 0.7.4-11.1

This package is installed from the world repository, but is available in the arch repositories ?
Code: [Select]
pacman -Ss a52dec
world/a52dec 0.7.4-11.1 [installé]
    A free library for decoding ATSC A/52 streams
extra/a52dec 0.7.4-11 [installé: 0.7.4-11.1]
    A free library for decoding ATSC A/52 streams

Correct. Some packages (mostly from [community]) are only available from Arch.

As a supplement to pacman, I recommend pkgbrowser.
