Hi!
I recently started working on a package blacklist for the official AUR which can e.g. be used to prevent people from uploading packages in the official repos to [unsupported] (cf. FS#12902 [1]). Patches can be found in the "pkg-blacklist" branch of my working tree [2]. They currently include some code that adds a "PackageBlacklist" table and a hacky helper utility that can be used to update that table by sync'ing it with some binary repos.
Constructive criticism and suggestions welcome!

All around pretty awesome. I wouldn't have written it in C myself but more power to you! What about provides lists from packages as well? Can you add those to the blacklist? I think you (or someone) should but maybe I am wrong. Two char indent? Eew ;) JK, it's better than tabs... -- -Justin
