Howdy, Will all existing AUR packages be moved over? Will it be an automated process for existing packages? I'm wondering because there are quite a few unmaintained packages. If not, is there something I can do to help? I don't mind taking on more packages if that is what's needed. Thanks Storm On Tue, May 26, 2015 at 05:33:44PM -0600, Brian F. G. Bidulock wrote:

For the record it take for me 4 hours to upload 44 packages, included registration and ssh-key generation.
For me, 2 days for 360 packages, which is almost the identical pace. But, some maintainers have thousands of packages.

The transition from AUR3 to AUR4 has to be made by the maintainer, there is no automated update process which will transfer packages. Therefore orphaned packages will be removed in the transition. Think of it as a cleanup. You as a maintainer have until August 1st to upload your packages to AUR4 otherwise everyone may take over what you once maintained.
