kiss-stray: new utility to list 'stray' files #63

Closed echawk closed 2 years ago

echawk commented 2 years ago

Lists files that have no owner - its addition is due to changes in 'kiss-preferred'

apprehensions commented 2 years ago

if this lists files and checks if they are owned by a package from kiss alternative what is it's purpose?

edit: i think the purpose of this was so that for example, package a has a file /usr/bin/a but no package owns it, and a alternative exists for such file i presume?

@wael444 The reason I made this utility a PR is because with my pr for a faster kiss-preferred, the utility wouldn't list files that have no owner, but are in the alternatives system. So this utility is meant to explicity provide that behavior.
