Additionally, the AUR is going to need to be able to import or use info from the main package DBs in this case. This gives us a lot of advantages, but forces us to couple some things. Unless, of course, you wanted to go the route the main site went: parse a db.tar.gz file and put the data into the DBs.
I suppose I'm missing something here. If we moved community to a normal repo why would the AUR have any notion of what the main repos are and what they contain? I'm thinking of stuff like checking for duplicates packages but I don't know if that's what you're talking about. -- Callan Barrett
