Description:
I think the checkupdate script should have a -q (quiet) flag. It will only print the name of the packages, but not the package's version. So it will be possible to pipe the output to the other program (Example: checkupdate | pacman -Qi).
This task depends upon

That is already possible:
`checkupdates | cut -d ' ' -f 1 | pacman -Qi -`
