Please visit the above link for discussion.
Summary: Reject AUR packages that fulfill package dependencies without providing the files/binaries of the package in question.
Just a query if this crosses the line into to distro policy (i.e. RFC Land) from TU self-governing policy land? I'm OK with this being discussed as an RFC (openness and visibility is good), but my initial reaction was this could have been discussed "internally" by the maintainers of the AUR (TUs) using aur-general.
