I don't understand why some people are against such helpers.
Without veering too far off this thread's topic, there's a large number of discussions on the web which cover this.
So assumed there would be a helper that provides the kind of search you need, you won't use it, as a matter of principle and because there are freakish discussions about helpers? Assumed somebody can recommend a good helper to search the AUR, I'm willing to test it. On Tue, 04 Nov 2014 16:22:26 -0700 John D Jones III <unixgeek1972@gmail.com> wrote:
