Description

Compares installed pacman package files with the current filesystem to reveal local changes, missing files, or unexpected modifications. It is useful for audits and troubleshooting system drift.

Full filesystem comparisons can be slow and may expose paths or file metadata. Review output carefully before sharing or using it to restore files.
