Nightly Snapshots of abs tree
I'm behind a rather restrictive firewall in my institute, which prevents me from using abs (and a number of other things cvs, and smtp included). I searched around the forums for any info regarding a snapshot of the abs tree, and did find an old thread, whose link no longer exists: http://www.archlinux.org/abs/abs-snap.tar.bz2 . The rsync server accompanied by it also isn't working. This was posted on the mailing list at: http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/arch … 08208.html
Is there anything similar still there? Could somebody please set up a snapshot if not so? Thanks.

Re: Nightly Snapshots of abs tree
You can use yaourt -Sb package or just yaourt --getpkgbuild package to download the last PKGBUILD.

Re: Nightly Snapshots of abs tree
Also, looks like abs will be switching over to use rsync in the near future, since there have been some backend complications with some package changes lately...Getting rid of the ABS <-> CVS link
