Man you know that is a draft. I don't remember who wants to adopt squashfs- tools now, but surely a TU want because it has been moved to [community] recently.
Man, you know that you have removed most of the packages from your "draft" from [extra]. And I need to install three times as many packages from AUR as I needed three years ago just because they have been removed from the repos to AUR. And the repos of Arch Linux are pretty small compared to other distros anyway. That's always mentioned as disadvantage in reviews of Arch Linux. This is a bit compensated by AUR, but if you regularly move important or popular packages to AUR then Arch Linux will become a second Gentoo and for some people who want or need a binary distro unusable. And no, Arch Linux is not a distro from developers for developers anymore. This may have been in the beginning or Arch Linux but is not true anymore. Heiko
