Please consider adding a timer to clear the pkg cache similar to paccache. on my system I added the following service, essentually stolen from the paccache service

[Unit]
Description=Discard unused packages weekly

[Timer]
OnCalendar=weekly
AccuracySec=1h
Persistent=true

[Install]
WantedBy=timers.target

[Unit]
Description=Discard unused packages

[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=/usr/bin/paccache -c /home/%i/.cache/pikaur/pkg -r
User=%i
Group=%i

[actionless]

1. seems like service not gonna work with dynamic users' cache (it would require more sophisticated unit leveraging system dynamic users)

2. a bit stupid question (but i didn't had time to investigate it): by default timer will be disabled, right?

Hadn't thought about dynamic users. Yes the service wound be disabled by default.
