How to list all installed packages coming from certain repo eg. community?

I want plain output (just a list of names) like this:

zynaddsubfx
xsel
...
Zitrax

Try with paclist:

paclist - List all packages installed from a given repo

e.g. to list all packages installed from community:

paclist community

If you want only the names (w/o version number) you could use something like:

awk '{print $1}' <(paclist community)

or

cut -d' ' -f1 <(paclist community)

    paclist does not seem to be a thing now; pacman -S --search paclist yields nothing; also, issuing paclist at the command line is not recognized. – Eric Smith Aug 07 '18 at 00:59
  • @EricSmith - not sure what you mean... paclist is a very real thing on my up-to-date archlinux setup... – don_crissti Aug 07 '18 at 09:45

    Found it; the key command; pacman --files --search paclist; apparently in the pacman-contrib package which I did not have installed. – Eric Smith Aug 08 '18 at 01:48

There is no need to install pacman-contrib package to achieve that goal:

pacman -Sl reponame | grep "\[installed\]"
