Arch is rolling distribution what does mean, always up to date. So to keep that initiative i am looking for Out Of Date packages and flagging them with link to last update or last version.

arbitrarily "bumping" VCS packages doesn't gain anything other then creating fuzz and satisfy shitty AUR wrappers -- it should be avoided at all means. With VCS packages there is noting like "out of date" in the classical term and such PKGBUILD should only be altered when there is actual change (f.e. in the dependencies or the build process). You either need to remember, or look for something like a --devel switch in your AUR wrapper. cheers, Levente
