[SOLVED]Archlinuxfr seems to only have outdated packages

I've been trying to download a few utilities from the AUR (specifically Grive), but everything I've looked at downloading (via YAOURT) was listed as unsupported, and was last updated between 2010 and 2012.  I'm rather new to Arch, but I'm fairly certain that Grive has been updated somewhat more recently than 2011, so how do I gain access to more updated packages in the AUR?

EDIT:  to gain access to the AUR, I added archlinuxfr to pacman.conf
EDIT:  SOLVED

Remove that broken repo from your pacman.conf and learn how to use the AUR: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AUR

No (unless you meant you did it temporarily to get a precompiled AUR helper).

Please read the wiki on how AUR works.
