Cheking first user's packages by TU.
Hello all.
Today I've checked what's new in AUR and when I was searching I've seen that there are many dummy packages uploaded a little time before and now thoose packages are orphaned.
I know that those user's are uploading package ,orphaining it and that the don't will be warned.
I think this is a good idea ,(it isn't as much as checking all of all packages in AUR ,becouse TU have much work anyway) to check first user package that he upload.
Then tell me what do you think about this (TU,Mod's and Administrator especially)...
BTW.Don't blame me for this

Re: Cheking first user's packages by TU.
In my opinion, this is the area where the community can simply jump in. If you see such PKGBUILDs, report it. The best way would be on the mailing list or on IRC (#archlinux-aur) or even here. Actions taken by TUs/Admins are then usualy quick. On ocasions, I do go through AUR and clean up unneeded stuff, but this is really not on a regular basis.
