yaourt question

Maybe this has been asked before.   Why has yaourt never made it into the community repo? Its a great wrapper for pacman .  I'm just puzzled as to why its not in community yet .

Re: yaourt question

It has been asked many times before, but it's a little tricky to search for.

The AUR is insecure and using tools like yaourt without paying attention to the fine details makes Linux systems easier to write malware for than it will ever be to write a virus for modern Windows boxes.
