Hi Archers,

oh man. I got excited reading this.
I really like the first change you made. Using a directory with package specific sed changes on a per file basis is a kick ass idea.
I agree, this is a smart move. My only real thought is why have anything in /etc/ at all? It would be great if this could all be done non-root for editing any config settings and such. Maybe ~/.srcpac/ or something?
It also seems almost overkill to need another user to build packages, but not sure what to think about that. Anyway, great work with this.
srcpac is also a wrapper around pacman, so it can install packages - hence the need for root.
