[SOLVED] yaourt upgrade check skips(?) packages

Question

When running "yaourt -Syu --aur", after updating package databases for normal repositories, yaourt checks for AUR package upgrades and shows a counter, for example:
[ypoluektovich@arch ~]$ yaourt -Syu --aur
Password:
:: Synchronizing package databases...
core is up to date
extra is up to date
community is up to date
multilib is up to date
Foreign packages: 34 / 34
But lately, for me, the counter has been stopping just short of completion:
Foreign packages: / 49 / 50
What's going on and how do I fix it?

Answer 1

Right, I've figured it out. Turns out the "missing" packages have been removed/renamed in the AUR database. Here's a one-liner that will print names of all such packages:
for x in `pacman -Qqm`; do [[ $( yaourt -Ss $x | grep "installed" | wc -l ) == 0 ]] && echo "$x"; done
