Write a script to generate the PKGBUILD, make a source package, and upload it to the AUR (you can use e.g. aurploader for the upload). You can then cron it and forget about it.
Of course, the checksum might not mean much after that if no one inspects the file, but it's only a wordlist so all the PKGBUILD should do is move it to the pkgdir.
I could easily fully automate the process, but it's not the case. If it would be automated, then I wouldn't give any guarantee it even still works. I think I'll use Fedora rawhide mirrored RPM source file as proposed in other emails.
You could also ask upstream to leave archives on the server for a month. They can't take that much space, and I can't believe that the living language changes so quickly that if you use yesterday's spelling you will be shunned by everyone.*
I already asked upstream, there's no way they can keep more then the latest tarball. No idea why. Regards -- Maciej Sitarz
