pacman --sync --noconfirm --clean --clean does not clean /var/cache/pacman/pkg/

I tested on my Arch Linux.

#  pacman --sync --noconfirm --clean --clean          

Cache directory: /var/cache/pacman/pkg/
:: Do you want to remove ALL files from cache? [y/N] 

Database directory: /var/lib/pacman/
:: Do you want to remove unused repositories? [Y/n] 
removing unused sync repositories...

Though it did clean /var/lib/pacman, but not /var/cache/pacman/pkg, I use rm -rf /var/cache/pacman/pkg/* instead.

Very interesting, thanks. This should also be reported upstream. Will implement fix soon.

I've reported https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1529458#p1529458, the solution is echo "y\ny" | pacman -Scc
