Hello,

I think this is not merely a real problem a but an occasion to produce a
funny song/video to promote Arch Linux. In german, "Arch" sounds similar
to the german word "Arsch", which means "ass" as in asshole - a running gag. 

Btw. and a bit offtopic: I think the pronounciation for Suse promoted in
the video is completely wrong. I never heard someone pronounce it that
way. We should do better, if we at all do it.
