Hey Łukasz! :)
I am running arch-linux with cyrus-imapd as mail server for several years and now cyrus-imapd appeared in community-testing.
I am planning upgrade and switch from cyrus-imapd aur package to version from community-testing. You can just continue using the AUR version until the package is actually moved to [community], so unless you want to help out testing the package there is no need to hurry switching to the one in [community-testing].
If however you want to help out by testing the new package you should read the wiki article[0] about the testing repositories, especially it is important that you also have to enable [testing] if you want to use [community-testing] because packages in [community-testing] link against libraries etc. from [testing] and you otherwise put your system in a state of being partially upgraded[1].
Many thanks for your detailed explanations. This is my production machine, so it is safer to stick to AUR version and compile it myself for now instead of pulling packages from [testing] repository. Regards, Łukasz
