wookietreiber [1] filed a deletion request for tabix [2]: tabix and bgzip binaries are now part of the HTSlib project: https://github.com/samtools/htslib See also: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/htslib/ This htslib PKGBUILD also properly conflicts/provides/replaces tabix. However if one searches tabix in AUR Web Interface or yaourt, htslib does not appear in the results. I don't know if this is a bug or missing feature of the AUR search functions, but it would certainly nice if one searches for 'tabix' htslib would appear as a replacement in the search results.
