About

PackWarden lists every application installed on your system, from pacman, APT, DNF and Flatpak, in a single window, and lets you select and remove them in bulk. It works the same on every distribution. Experienced users get one fast tool instead of separate package manager and cleanup commands. If you are coming from Windows, it is the Bulk Crap Uninstaller you have been missing. Features: - One list for all package managers: pacman, APT, DNF, Flatpak - Also manages game libraries: Steam, Heroic (Epic, GOG) and Lutris - Search, filter by source, sort by installed size - Batch uninstall with a single confirmation - Secure privilege handling through polkit (pkexec)
