Hi all, I've been looking at writing a small bot which will crawl over orphaned packages' PKGBUILDs, performing analysis and gathering stats.
For example, I'm really keen on making an attempt to clean a bunch of them up. 25% of the 53587 packages in the AUR today are orphans and, like many others, I'd like to see this number decreased. In the past, I have manually gone down the list of orphans, but that's just horrible and slow (also, can't get my browser to do HTTP head requests). So naturally, I started writing a bot.
When AUR 4.0.0 is released the whole AUR will be cleaned out and only reuploaded packages will remain, so at this point it seems rather pointless IMO. -- Sincerely, Johannes Löthberg PGP Key ID: 0x50FB9B273A9D0BB5 https://theos.kyriasis.com/~kyrias/
