pacman-files: List only the package names.

pacman

$ pacman --files --quiet ${filename}

try on your machine

The command pacman --files --quiet ${filename} is used in the Arch Linux operating system package manager called pacman. Here is an explanation of the command and its options:

pacman: It is the command used to interact with the Arch Linux package manager.
--files: This option tells pacman to display the files that are included in the specified package or packages.
--quiet: This option keeps the output of the command quiet, which means it won't display any unnecessary information other than the list of files.
${filename}: It is a placeholder for the name of the package whose files you want to list. You would replace ${filename} with the actual name of the package you are interested in.

So, when you run pacman --files --quiet ${filename}, it will display a list of files included in the package specified by ${filename} without any additional output.
