Arch User Repository Repository

This is very much a prototype.  There are large gaps and holes.  It is mostly useless.  It even does some damage, as your AUR helper will probably no longer work.

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

This is an AUR repo for Pacman.  It is search only, and you can not install anything from it.

I made it so I could search the AUR offline with nice tools like Expac.  I'm curious what you guys can think of doing with it.

To install, add these lines to pacman.conf:

[aur]
Server=http://kmkeen.com/aur/

And pacman -Syy.  It'll download a 3.6MB db file.  For a sense of scale, [core] is 36KB compressed.  [aur] will extract to between 200MB and 300MB depending on your filesystem.  If you are running pacman 3.4, pacman will not like this.

The info in it is currently a week old.  It is missing useful info like maintainer or required-by.  There are hundreds of small gaps caused by typos.  Complain about anything you find, 26000 packages is a lot for me alone to proof read.

I'll probably be updating it once a week or so.

Re: Arch User Repository Repository

26k packages, but most users use a few tens of AUR packages maximum.
I think other solutions could be more approriate.  like, periodic download/update of the sourcepackages people actually use, or maybe aur repos limited in scope. (aur-haskell, aur-games, ..) just thinking out loud.

Re: Arch User Repository Repository

Still ironing out all bugs in [aur], but until libalpm gets a lot faster it might not be worth the effort.  In the mean time, here are all the PKGBUILDS in the AUR:

Re: Arch User Repository Repository

And if you would like to play with it but don't have any idea where to begin

tar -xOvf pkgbuild_bundle.tar.gz 2>&1 | grep ..... 

will search every pkgbuild in under 0.05 seconds.

Re: Arch User Repository Repository

While it takes longer than the advertised 0.05 seconds, it's still very fast :-)

Has anyone tried it with pacman 3.5? Is it faster?

Re: Arch User Repository Repository

Updated for pacman 3.5.   Very very untested.
